30 Minutes or Less- Ruben Fleischer


For the second weekend in a row, monkeys will be under attack. But in 30 Minutes or Less it will be in the form of the monkey masked villains of Danny McBride ( Eastbound and Down) and Nick Swardson (The Benchwarmers). On August 12th, Jesse Eisenberg (The Social Network) will have to deal with the issue of having a bomb strapped to his chest while he is ordered to rob a bank. And with the little help of his friend Chet (Aziz Ansari) it looks to be quite the absurd scheme.

This foursome of actors could be enough to make this film a worthwhile viewing. Fleischer doesn't really have a lot of experience as a director. With the only big movie he has produced being Zombieland, it may be a bit of stretch to say this film will be creatively outrageous. Even though i did enjoy Zombieland a little bit (just a little). But McBride and Swardson are a very funny duo, especially when they are dressed in monkey suits. I am expecting 30 Minutes or Less to be full of satire and situational irony that will bring the characters head on with their own comedic destruction. The normal lives of two young men will meet the outlandish lives of two others, and they will be flung into circumstances that will test their idiotic decision making skills. However the cards fall, this comedy will be one worth a viewing. There is no expectations for it to be an outstanding ticket seller come Friday, but this film will be no flop, not with this crew behind the reigns.

Rated- R
