I remember hearing that Rocky Horror Picture Show was panned when it first came out and that the midnight shows revived it, but as absurd as Rocky Horror is, it's made up of great music and great performances and it deserves to be as beloved as it is. This movie, on the other hand, had me fast forwarding through songs, just to find out how it all ended. (And I wasn't pleased when I got there.) What kind of story ends with brothers getting married to each other? What a waste of Bowen Yang, Nathan Lane, and Megan Mulllaly. And what a waste of 2 hours that I will never get back. Seriously, how did this get greenlit?
