‘Makes The Bottom Of The Barrel Look Like Everest.’ Critics Have Seen Playdate, And They Aren’t Holding Back On Alan Ritchson And Kevin James’ Action Comedy

by

Alan Ritchson is famous for roles like Jack Reacher and Aquaman, but the movie Playdate lets him show off his funny side. With a great cast including Isla Fisher, Sarah Chalke, and Alan Tudyk, it sounds promising. However, John Serba at Decider points out some problems. He says the movie’s jokes and references seem geared towards very different age groups – appealing to 48-year-olds with its references, but using humor that feels more appropriate for 7-year-olds.

Okay, so I just heard about this movie, and it sounds insane! Basically, this super dangerous, rapidly changing fungus breaks loose from a top-secret lab. It’s up to two young workers and this really tough, experienced guy who deals with bio-threats to survive the night and stop it from wiping out everyone. Apparently, it spreads fast and just destroys everything in its way, so the stakes are seriously high!

The Beast in Me Recap: Kill the Beast

by

Let’s rewind and cover what happened. The story begins with Abbott and his team finding thousands of dollars hidden in the seats of a private jet. It’s December 2019, and Abbott immediately goes from the plane to a party at Nina’s gallery to arrest the jet’s owner, Pedro Dominguez. Dominguez is a Miami real estate developer who launders money for a cartel, and he’s the one who provided the last $100 million needed to help the Jarvises resolve their financial problems. Seeing a picture of Nile in his colleague’s office, Abbott recalls arresting someone at that same gallery – this was the night he was remembering. However, everyone originally thought Abbott crashed the party to arrest Nile, not Dominguez. Madison, the gallery owner, is furious and even throws her champagne glass at Abbott. Her anger isn’t just from the public embarrassment; she’s in the middle of an art show and is also using cocaine.
