Um Crime para Dois

You're probably gonna say to yourself "real people do not act like this." And you're most definitely right. However, if you can get past that, Issa Rae and Kumail Nanjiani make this movie hilarious with their own unique styles of comedy. Their performances shine bright next to a pretty lackluster plot and dialogue. If you're a fan of either of their work, like me, you will most likely have fun. The movie is enjoyable, and it is great to see two actors of color take the lead in a rom-Com/mystery!

It's a fun, easy watch with a couple good laughs sprinkled in. It's one of those movies we've all seen dozens of times, and there's a certain mindless comfort that comes with movies like this.

As long as you aren't looking for anything groundbreaking, and don't take it too seriously, this is an enjoyable popcorn movie.

I understand if you watch this and don't like it. Tastes differ and that is more than ok. What I don't get is, calling this boring. You can call this a full range of things, but boring? Interesting choice to describe, but ultimately you'll lose my respect and your opinion may be void to me. The movie starts off like a romantic comedy and it really looked like it for some time. If it continued like that, I'd understand if you thought or felt this was boring. But it didn't ... it changes pace and goes places I didn't expect it to go.

Then again, I never watch trailers, so I guess if you watch the trailer and then the movie, maybe you are able to think or feel this is boring. Don't blame the movie though, that really gives it its best shot. Not to mention the very charismatic leads. Both of which are great. Now overall the comedy is silly and even when there is "danger" there is always a whiff of lightness to it. Now that might be something you may really have issues with - be aware of that, if you consider watching this. It can be great fun, if it is your cup of tea!

I thought the trailer was kind of bad so I was pleasantly surprised by how funny the movie was. Gotta give credit to Kumail Nanjiani and Issa Rae. I was a fan of Kumail from Silicon Valley and The Big Sick, but I had yet to see anything Issa Rae is in. Now I really want to watch Insecure. The film is also self aware, it's only around 90 minutes so it doesn't waste any time. Overall, solid comedy but I'm glad I watched it on Netflix rather than in a theater.

This is a fun Friday night at home with your loved one and a bowl of popcorn.

This is pretty by the numbers, but everyone involved is clearly having a great time so just hop on and join the ride.

Some of it is even relatable. Issa and Kumail at first seem like an awkward pairing, but once the story skips 4 years they just have a great chemistry that keeps you hooked for the fun but brief 86 minutes.
