Reno 911!: It's a Wonderful Heist

I love 'Reno 911!'. But I hate Christmas films (with a few exceptions to be fair). So this was a weird little combo for me. To be honest I was just happy to be getting another 'Reno 911!' film so soon after last years one. Last year's was truly brilliant and I'm sure that's why they got the green-light for another one.

This one however felt a bit rushed. It felt like it was a couple of re-writes short of being what it could be. Making a film on a tight time-budget is always a risky procedure from what I understand.

Even the worst 'Reno 911!' skits are going to make you laugh in some way though. And while some of the stuff in the film was a miss, there are also some scenes that are right up there with the best this show has to offer. So not the best this product has to offer, but still a lot of fun. 7/10.

This movie was hilarious!!! I was so happy to see some of Reno's finest back in action and better than ever... Between the chimp sack, crotch doves, Terry's mistletoe dick, T. T's floppy boobs and Jackie stuck in the book donation box with a smelly punani I couldn't stop laughing!!! My only complaint is that deputy Garcia really didn't have a speaking role and once again Junior wasn't even in the movie. I purchased the movie on Amazon for $10 and thought it was well worth it. I look forward to watching their next film. One of my favorite Reno 911 shows was the Halloween episode. I would love to see a Reno 911 Halloween movie in 2023!!!

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.

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.

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.
