Review of Sorry to Bother You (2018) by Zmgalen2000 — 25 Jul 2018

Although the film has a myriad of satirical moments, its slow progression, poor visuals, cliché moments, and overall weirdness deter from its potential. This film, marketed as a comedy, wound up being a cult film surrounding naked equisapiens (horse/human mutant creatures), irrelevant to the plot's central foundation. Furthermore, the CGI/costuming pertaining to these beasts was adequate at best, making it highly unbelievable.

Moments not pertaining to the cult were often dull, as the majority of the comedic moments/significant plot points were revealed in the second trailer, causing the first two-thirds of the movie to progress slowly. Moreover, the film was dragged out far too much, and the remaining twenty-some-odd minutes felt strenuous and ingenuine.

Finally, the lip-synching for each of the character's "white voice" was extremely poor, especially when the voice was loud and define while the character's lips hardly, if at all, moved. All in all, this movie may have some appeal to those who want a taste of something different or enjoy a cult film, but to most, the convolution of elements protruding in a multitude of directions results in nothing but unnecessary disinterest and perplexion.
