Watched Stuber A Buddy Film starring Dave Bautista(Guardians Of The Galaxy) as Vic Manning, Karen Gillan(Doctor Who) as Sara Moms, Kumail Nanjiani(The Big Sick) as Stu Prasad , Iko Uwais(Thhe Raid) as Oka Tedjo, Natalie Morales(Battle Of The Sexes) as Nicole Manning, Betty Gilpin(Future'38) as Becca ,Scott Lawrence(Avatar) as Dr. Branch and Mira Sorvino(Mimic) as Captain Angie McHenry. I thought Dave Bautista and Kumail Nanjiani were fantastic — a hilarious comedy duo on par with the likes of Owen Wilson & Vince Vaughn or Simon Pegg & Nick Frost. Their chemistry really carried the film. However, the story itself struggled, especially with the sudden shift in romantic focus. Nicole Manning's character came out of nowhere as the new love interest, while Betty Gilpin’s Becca Scott was abruptly sidelined. It felt rushed and underdeveloped.Overall, it’s a good comedy, but not a great one.Great Music By Joseph Trapnese (Obilivion ), , Cinematography By Bobby Shore and Direction By Michael Dowse(Goon ) A Good Comedy But Had Potential To Be Great7/10.

If you’re looking for fun little date night movie, a night out with friends or a fun way to kill 90 minutes, ‘Stuber’ is the perfect film. It doesn’t reach comedy heights, but thanks to its leads it’s a very fun sit. - Chris dos Santos Read Chris' full article... https://www.maketheswitch.com.au/article/review-stuber-an-uber-fun-90-minutes-but-little-more

Weirdly long ad. Started out... Not good, but, promising, maybe? Got worse the further it went, and was basically garbage by the closing moments. _Final rating:★★ - Had some things that appeal to me, but a poor finished product._
