Eenie Meanie

I've read so many comparisons to many movies, but no one wants it to stand on its own.

In this age, there's few movies that you can't find some similarity to another film.

Andy Garcia and Marshawn Lynch were replaceable. But Samara Weaving and Karl Glusman kept it together to tell a 90-minute story that kept me interested.

It was a good ride.

I just finished "Eenie Meanie" and I'm left wondering what the point was. The film's script is so incredibly weak that it makes the entire experience feel ponderous and slow. The dialogue is unnatural and tries way too hard to be witty, which just comes off as forced and cringeworthy. I was really looking forward to this, especially after seeing Samara Weaving in the trailer, who is usually amazing. But even she can't save the central relationship between the main character, Edie, and her ex-boyfriend. He's so utterly unlikable and a walking liability that it's impossible to believe why she would go to such lengths for him. It's frustrating to watch and completely undermines her strength.

Is it worth watching? Not really. It's a classic case of a film that has a decent cast and a tired premise, but gets held back by its flimsy plot and sluggish pace.

Samara is on fire 🔥 A great watch with some unexpected moments that made me choke on my snacks. It has everything - fast packed action, unfolding drama and a love story all rolled into one. Great acting from the leads and believable driving skills. I always hate movies that feature unrealistic moves to pull off but this came across as entirely doable. Comedic in all the right places - 10/

Underrated crime caper with an excellent cameo from Andy Garcia. Gangsters guns and gags. Deserved so much more than a streaming slot. Maybe a cinematic release for the follow up eenie meanie minie and mo. Promising directorial debut and well acted from the lead and supporting cast,one of the better films of 2025.

Well acted, witty, fast-paced. Exactly what we needed for a Saturday night in. I was actually quite impressed considering hopes were low based on the ratings and it had my preconceived notions to overcome. Now I wonder if I would've scored it higher had I not let keyboard warriors into my head. I need five more characters for this review to be complete. Done.
