The Drop

The Drop is one of those movies that is so bad it's good. While it may not be the funniest film out there, it certainly has enough funny moments to make it an enjoyable comedy.

The plot is goofy and nothing groundbreaking, but it serves as a decent enough backdrop for the film's many comedic moments.

One of the standout features of The Drop is its cast. The film features a talented group of actors who all deliver solid performances, even if the material they are working with is not always up to par.

While the film is certainly not without its flaws - the pacing can be a bit uneven at times, and some of the jokes fall flat - it is ultimately an enjoyable comedy that is worth a watch. It may not be the funniest movie out there, but it has enough laughs to make it a decent way to pass the time. If you're in the mood for a lighthearted comedy that doesn't take itself too seriously, The Drop is definitely worth checking out.

Not witty, not funny, not anything really. Horrible writing and character development because I seriously couldn't have cared less about the majority of them or any of the relationships working out. Jillian Bell is the only reason this movie got bumped up from 1 star to 2, at least she is good for some chuckles given you like her brand of humor. If she wasn't in it, I don't think I would've made it through the whole movie. I've never been more annoyed by an entire cast in my life. Cringe doesn't even describe it. More like painful.

I audibly laughed when I saw a 10 star review in here. You can't convince me that wasn't posted by someone from the cast, crew or one of their friends or family.

I sat down to watch the 2022 comedy "The Drop" here in 2023 without ever having heard about it. But I figured with it being a comedy, that I would give the movie a chance.

Writers Sarah Adina Smith and Joshua Leonard put together a somewhat offbeat storyline and script here. And I guess it is sort of either a love or hate it thing. I found the movie to be a bit too monotonous, and I was sort of disappointed with the total lack of comedy throughout the 92 minutes that the movie ran for.

The acting performances in "The Drop" were actually fairly good, and they had a good cast ensemble. I was only familiar with Jillian Bell and Susan Sullivan on the cast list here.

Sure, "The Drop" was a watchable movie, and there was something interesting about the offbeat approach that they writers took to the storyline. However, I was expecting laughs, as the movie was labeled as a comedy, so I ended up somewhat disappointed.

My rating of director Sarah Adina Smith's 2022 movie lands on a four out of ten stars.

Even though the trailer is not attractable, I expected some quite good things from this movie because of some familiar talents and also the Production companies which are "Hulu" & "Stage 6 Film". But it was such a total Lack of taste at all & a waste of my time. I didn't see any comedic sense throughout the entire movie. Most of their scripts are all about Dirty Jokes which are not funny or hilarious as well. The Cinematogrpahy standard is too low which feels like they have filmed with a Director's smartphone. It is too early to say that but this could be one of the worst movies for 2023 for sure.

The Drop tells the story of 4 couples at a destination wedding when one friend drops a baby. The movie will then spend most of the runtime in the fall out of this and the wedding after.

Mark Duplass is one of my favorite film makers/actors and when I saw him promote this, I figured I'd give it a shot. The story itself is dreadfully written. The movie itself has been done many times where a group of couples have a weekend together and compare their relationships for one reason or another. I feel like the writer thought wouldn't it be just hilarious if the reason was that someone dropped a child? No not really it turns out.

The characters are remarkably unlikeable. Most are selfish , one demential narcissistic and have terrible chemistry with each other. The entire story itself is so shallow it doesn't justify the movie's gimmick. This isn't a dark comedy and most of the humor comes from sex jokes. Some work, most don't and thinking back I can think of 4-5 times I laughed out loud. With so many desperate jokes though it has a very low hit rate and it takes away from the things that actually do work.

Overall due to the terrible plot, shallow writing and characters this makes for a dreadful and pointless movie. There are some laughable moments but they are pancaked in by udder dreadfulness. Drop this entire movie from your que.
