Don't Tell Larry

Don't Tell Larry is a charming, offbeat comedy that strikes the right balance between chaos and heart. The chemistry between the actors is spot-on, making their relationships feel both hilarious and genuine. The premise is fun and keeps things entertaining throughout, even if a few scenes run a bit long. Still, the humor and warmth carry the film through its slower moments. Solid production, clever writing, and a playful tone make it an enjoyable watch from start to finish. It's not trying to reinvent the genre, but it knows exactly what it is-a feel-good, comedic break that doesn't take itself too seriously.

A hidden gem that takes you along on a wild and crazy (and cringy!) journey. Once you are strapped in, the movie takes a sharp turn or 2, or 3, that makes you fall out of your chair! Had to grip my seat to hold on!

The plot thickens scene by scene as a white lie, followed by an injustice gets blown out of proportion. Again and again and again. How far will the maligned Susan (the believable Patty Guggenheim), and her in-too-deep co-worker Patrick (Kenneth Mosley, master of facial expressions), go to get that carrot at the end of the stick? Or should I say, "raisin?" as they try to navigate their bizarre co-worker, Larry (Kiel Kennedy.)

Solid writing with a lot of hidden gems, and excellent performances by the stellar cast including Ed Begley, Jr, and Dot Marie Jones, who take you along for the ride, makes this a "ya gotta watch" film.

Don't Tell Larry is the kind of dark comedy that sneaks up on you, then hits you with a shovel and politely offers you a drink afterward. With razor-sharp writing and perfect performances, this film walks the tightrope between absurdity and sincerity without missing a beat.

The plot is deceptively simple: dysfunctional friends gets entangled in a lie that spirals hilariously and horrifyingly out of control. But what makes Don't Tell Larry shine is its ability to find humor in the bleakest situations without ever losing emotional weight. The pacing is tight, the dialogue crackles, and the moments of violence are so unexpected and bizarre, you can't help but laugh (and then wonder what that says about you).

Standout performances from the entire cast, especially the actor who plays Larry (without spoiling anything, just wow), make this film unforgettable. There's a subtle commentary here on guilt, loyalty, and how far people will go to achieve their goals all wrapped in a twisted little package of chaos.

If you like your comedy with a shot of dread and a chaser of moral ambiguity, Don't Tell Larry is your kind of ride.

Not for the faint of a heart but what a journey this movie was! It starts slow and builds until you find yourself oddly invested in the strange sequence of events these characters find themselves in.

I'll be the first to admit it may not be everyone's type of humor but my family was laughing throughout. If you want formula-driven, run-of-the-mill movie, this is not for you! On the other hand, if you want something different and are ready for a wild ride that will make you uncomfortable at times, definitely watch it! The story line has the perfect balance of crazy and reasonable that honestly keeps the audience guessing throughout, not sure of how the adventure will pan out and how the characters will fare.

This movie is straight up bonkers, like absolutely unhinged in the best way possible. I had no idea what was going on half the time and honestly? Loved that for me. It's got that dark, messed up humor that makes you laugh and then immediately question if you're okay. Total escape from reality too, like everything is so over the top and chaotic it makes regular life feel like boring af. The characters are all a mess, but weirdly relatable, and the story just keeps going off the rails in the most entertaining way. It's like if someone turned a fever dream and a meme dump into a film. Not for everyone but if your brain's already a little fried from life, this movie hits different. I will watch this movie again after I have some time to recover.
