Review of Baywatch (2017) by Minimoviemaniac — 06 Feb 2019

I know this movie is supposed to be a dumb, fun, summer comedy. While the movie is self-aware of this, it even failed to land some of the comedy that should’ve the center point of the whole movie. Meaning that there are certain jokes that didn’t land and they just kept going which made me even role my eyes.

When a comedies jokes don’t land and go on too long it’s a sign that the movie is becoming more dumb than fun. The comedy shouldn’t have annoyed me, meaning that bad jokes just went on for too long or didn’t lead to better jokes.

While the movie is self-aware, and kind of fun, it fails on a comedic level that makes movies like this enjoyable for audiences who will see this movie. Some people might find the raunchy comedy really funny if that’s what they like, but if you, in general, like comedies you might not be laughing as much as you thought you would be during this movie.
