Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele are the comedic cat’s pajamas du jour. To no surprise, they have painted a feature film from their many hilarious comedy sketches. Yes, it is ridiculous. But what film isn’t in some form or another?
The beauty of the movie lies in the cuteness of this kitten. It captures the hearts of all who it encounters. Gangsters, assassins, drug dealers and two ordinary cousins fall prey to this undeniable adorability. Said cousins, Clarence and Rell (Key and Peele, respectively), could not be more ill-prepared for the ensuing tomfoolery. Adopting the aliases of Shark Tank and Tectonic as well as stereotypical “street speak”, they involuntarily go undercover to retrieve Keanu while delivering unprecedented timing and envelope-pushing comedy.
From Clarence’ infatuation with George Michael and his background in team building to Rell’s recent heartbreak and propensity for weed and the interaction of these two, this movie is entertaining from Keanu’s first gunfight-escaping gallop.
This is the movie you would hope these two geniuses would create. Only the obligatory Danny Trejo cameo could have made this film better as Keanu naps on and scratches it’s way through 4.1 napkins out of 5.
