Bar Fight!

This film lacks good acting performances, humour and wit. Personally I cant find anything good to say about this film - maybe the colour palette of the whole film was quite pleasant. The main ex-couple had no chemistry, most of the jokes repeat themselves, side characters and their lines are annoying and extremely unnatural and the story is quite predictable. The whole film felt super staged and more like an episode of a sitcom. And eventhough I like Melissa Fumero in Brooklyn 99, this role just didn´t suit her. I must admit I struggled to get to the end of "Bar Fight", eventhough the runtime is quite short.

People who dismiss this effort must be getting their laughs somewhere other than either film or tv because ... where are they? Where HAVE all the comedies gone?

But I suspect those folks don't laugh a lot -- in general.

This is a good-natured buddy movie without major surprises and some cheeful cameos by a friendly ensemble.

To be fair, there is a "best friend" so lacking in charm it made spotting the gender of the author a bit too easy.

But other than that, it's may not be cinema fare, but it is a streaming snack well worth enjoying.

She is just as delightful as in the Brooklyn Nine-Nine character that made her such a broadcast favourite. He is a litte too low-energy at times, and his character could have benefited from a few more actual zingers.

But hey. I was starving and this briefly fed me. So I give thanks and laughter in return.

This movie plays ike a National Lampoon film (after they made all the good ones and started making trash with the NL name on them) only updated to today's lingo.

Actually it's a level above those NL movies, but not by much. The characters are all fast talking people making silly predictable jokes that arent actually especially funny.

Throw in some dumb humor like the one about plastic straws and you can anticipate every line in the film.

It's competently, if inexpensively, made and the acting is fine. The movie's downfall is the script which just isnt all that funny. It's like a facsimile of a comedy written by someone who isn't all that talented and only knows comedy from other movies they've seen.

Byt the time the first third is done, you will be either bored or annoyed. There is nothing new or original in it.

If you want some background noise from a movie that sounds like every other movie in this genre then go for it.

Bar fight! It isn't the best film ever made, but it's not the worst, either. The film follows a couple that has recently split up. While the breakup is smooth, they end up fighting over who gets to keep going to their favorite bar. In order to decide who can keep going to the bar, the pair play some quirky games, and you get the feeling they may not be over each other after all. Or are they? And it's Christmas for some reason. Anyway, I didn't recognize any of the actors except Melissa Fumero from Brooklyn 99. But I thought they did okay with what they were given. Personally, these types of movies are 50/50, and I thought that this one was okay.

I feel like the events and key moments for this film weren't well planned or executed. There were some surprising scenes once in a while, but there just wasn't enough excitement in them and when there was, it quickly faded out. On one minute I was happy that something happened and then the next minute it gets taken away. Kinda upsetting.

A few songs in between scenes would have made a huge difference, but instead there were waaay too many silent scenes that weren't even interesting. A good soundtrack would have set the tone for the film and given more emotion to it.

It's a pitty though, cause the plot seemed kinda fun and most actors are great. It just really lacks some action and more interesting characters. For a comedy movie, there should really be some funny/happy scenes. I didn't come close to laughing once.
