Reno 911!: It's a Wonderful Heist

A consistently funny, truly Altman-esque rollercoaster of excellent sight gags, brilliant performances, grand jokes and hilarious throwaway lines. Just when you think they've gone too far, they go above and beyond.

Much of the action is set in what appears to be a decaying mall, where the deputies are trying to protect a huge nugget of some kind. It's enough of a hook to support the thin plot.

By the time you take the magical sleigh ride, you'll be ready for anything!

If you don't laugh out loud, you should move to a state with legal cannabis (why not Reno?)... and keep trying!

Me and my wife watched about forty minutes of this poop and couldn't do it anymore. I been a fan of this show since I was 14 years old and this was NOTHING like the original show. The interactions with them seemed kinda off and jokes seemed forced.

The main characters barely had lines, I don't even remember Garcia having speaking lines from what I saw and the absence of junior is extremely noticeable. Everyone one looked like they were sleepy or just didn't wanna be there.

I'm gonna try to rewatch it and see if nostalgia was just clouding my judgement but this was not what I was expecting in the least bit.

It had some slightly funny moments (Terry's mistletoe wiener🤣) but the jokes just didn't have the same punch they used to have. All the banter between the cops wasn't even natural feeling.

Everything just seems off.

The most unfunny entrance in Reno 911 movies/series. I didn't like much the previous movie (hunt for qanon) but, at least, there were some funny scenes. HEIST seems lifeless, actors look tired, even their performances look awkward and not in a good way, as usual. Reno 911 was not the best tv comedy series i have watched, but i liked it a lot, these characters were always funny and overall, this show was kinda original. Didn't always hit the mark but this was a successful comedy, if comedy is something that should make you laugh. Even at the latest -not so good- seasons, this show made me laugh a lot. Watching HEIST, i didn't laugh even once. I hope they find their rhythm again, and i am looking forward to watch a 9th season or a new movie. I am not writing them off yet.

Robert Ben Garant should be there again.

I've only seen the beginning, I'm watching it as I write this.. but I saw there was only one review and though I can understand where the reviewers coming from, I'm just thankful for any new Reno 911 content in 2022.. it can always be better and it's never going to be perfect or like it used to be. But like I said I'm just thankful that the actors are willing to revive these characters.

It's in its own genre and will always be special to me, that being said let me (actually watch it) & make sure it's not overwhelmingly horrible.. if for some reason it is I think I will be crushed. Now I'm a little worried and really hoping that I'm not just being a giant hypocrite.

Having been a huge fan of the show in its original run, I was really looking forward to this. I made it about 50 minutes in without so much as cracking a smile before I called it quits. Robert Ben Garant's absence from the screen was disappointing enough, but his absence from the writing credits makes me think he was the biggest talent behind the scripts, too.

The hilarious interpersonal dynamics between the deputies and lieutenant Dangle that made the original show so endearing are entirely absent here (some of which may be at least partially a consequence of the expanded cast), and instead we're treated to bit after zany bit with Dangle and the gang just there to provide bland commentary on the already bland gags.
