Bad Shabbos

I had the absolute pleasure of seeing Bad Shabbos last night! What a delightful comedy! The ensemble cast is extremely talented. The humor in this movie can be appreciated by everyone. It transverses all religions and ethnicities. You only need to have a family to be able to relate. An additional treat to the evening, was getting to meet the director of this outstanding movie, Daniel Robbins. He's incredibly charming and humble! I don't think he realizes how gifted he is! He's quite approachable, warm and grateful for the positive response to his work. It is so promising to see a director of his caliber emerging. I will be on board to see all of his future movies.

Bad Shabbos has a plot that is so preposterous that it boggles the mind. Of course, if you are willing to check your brain at the door and accept this premise then this movie might be for you.

Of course, the acting is better than the dialogue that is written for these poor actors.

Be prepared for ridiculous, slapstick, and highly improbable events to happen.

I'm glad it was only an 80 minute film because it as difficult to sit through be he movie as it was.

I was so looking forward to some good laughs , but it just was not funny.

Why take a chance on liking a movie when you should enjoy your theater experience.

Best family movie ever; very, very funny, and heart warming, about a family that stays together and loves each and protects each other no matter what; all inclusive movie showing all faiths having fun together and supporting each other; strongly recommend from teenagers to grandparents; Well written and beautifully directed by a rising star; Great cast. The movie is about a prank that went terribly wrong, with lots of laugh out loud moments, and fall out of your chair hysterical shockingly humorous situations; Some amazing new and seasoned acting veterans round out an incredible cast with a mensch of a director.

Do yourself a mitzvah and go see "Bad Sabbos"! This movie is pure comedy gold-sharp writing from Daniel Robbins & Zack Weiner, clean humor that actually lands, and joke after joke without a stale moment. The ensemble cast is so in sync they could be a well-rehearsed kugel recipe. Every scene is packed with laughs, clever dialogue, and just the right amount of absurdity to keep everyone entertained from start to finish. If you need a break from the daily schlep and want a feel-good comedy that actually delivers, this is the movie to see! Trust me, you won't regret it-your funny bone will thank you!

I honestly did not know what to expect, The Cast was terrific, the story was terrific and I was belly laughing constantly. I could identify with the family and the movie was quite entertaining and it had me at hello. The comedies today are not that funny, no jokes and you can see the punchlines from a mile away, Bad Shabbos seemed real, as I watched the movie I felt as if I knew the characters personally. That is about all i have to say other than I loved this movie, I hope it wins an Oscar and I have to write another 101 characters or this review will not be printed. The concept of 25 hours of powering down goes back 3500 years but it is very novel to these times. Shabbat Shalom.
