Angry Neighbors

I actually BOUGHT this stinkeroo. Mostly for Mr. Langella, who pulled off a great job despite an absolutely abysmal script. Sadly, it had such promise that I watched from beginning to end, so I have twice earned the right to declare... this movie SUCKS!!!

Worst. Story. Ever.

In fact, I don't think this film presented a story. Or a point. Or anything funny at all.

Anyway, this one is about a guy with a talking dog who might be pissed off at his neighbor, who you will never see, while a woman sometimes swims nude without being nude outside his "island" home. All for various unexplained reasons. That's about it. PEE-YEW!

It's a beautiful flop though, which means the crew is awesome. I already said the players are awesome. So, this can only be a failure of artistic vision and leadership! Top rot!

Sheesh! How do you go wrong with Frank Langella????

PS - Mr. Langella, I hope you were well paid, sir. We don't blame you!

This movie made me laugh a total of zero times. One of the worst movies I've ever seen. If you want to waste your time and be completely bored than by all means watch this movie.

P. S. There is nothing to spoil about this movie.

I literally wrote this review while I was watching the film because I was so bored.

The plot is stupid, the comedy is the worst, and I really don't get why anyone would give this film a good rating. I would rather watch paint dry.

Also, I really don't get the dog and the man's relationship and communication through the entire film. Just another aspect of the film that detracts from the already horrible plot and acting. If the dog wasn't in the movie there wouldn't even be a movie, because this film lacks that much content.

The movie seems promising but once u start it its shocks u. Its so boring, nor funny and the director is beyond horrible. They leave all the beautiful scenery n focus on faces making us unable to see whats going on or where are we!

The story line is slow and its simply too much talk between the old man n his dog which shouldn't be a movie.

I wish they focused on the beautiful surrounding instead, it could've helped the viewers enjoy it a bit.

Try it yourself and see if u can find any fun in this film. For us its a total no and i should trust the rating as it has three and half star on prime tv.

I think this was some sort of elitist attempt at self deprecating humor? That is my best guess , but I could be wrong. From the very first sentence of the movie it wasn't funny and simply bad. It only snowballed downhill from here. The acting is poor and just about every scene or chapter is at best distasteful and at its worst downright crude.

Out of the 150 movies I've reviewed on IMDB not a single one was this bad. Some movies have bad acting that damages the overall film quality but this would score a 0 in every possible way to one could rate a movie. It is a shame that reviewers are obligated to even give it a one star.

Highly recommend not viewing this to save time you will not get back in your life.

Angry Neighbors is one of the most clueless adaptations I've seen in a while, a desperate attempt to make a commercial feature out of something that was more think-piece oriented than plot driven.

In more skillful hands, it might have worked. But the screenplay, by yes, three writers spiraling in Rewrite City, couldn't figure anything that nuanced out. The result is to adapt a metaphorical source literally, close their eyes and just hope it makes sense.

It's one thing to have a talking dog as a projected narrative voice in a book, another to have the dog actually talk. Cheech Marin voice might eventually drive you to turn this off early. Thank him for that.

Angry neighbors does manage one achievement... it makes John Avildsen's butchery of Thomas Berger's Neighbors seem harmless by comparison.
