The Kid Detective (2020)
The Script Could Have Used Another Draft
I admire movies that are not afraid to intertwine dry comedy with dark subject matter. It's a very difficult line to walk and this movie does it well. However, the climax left a lot to be desired. There were a lot more interesting routes the writer/director could have took to make the reveal of the climax more suspenseful visually. Instead of leaving a bread crumb trail for the audience to put the pieces together, he just tells us everything through dialogue. I left this movie feeling underwhelmed but the final scene really did well conveying the overall message.
6.5/10.
What Did Jack Do? (2017)
What more do you want?
It's Lynch at his silliest. If anything, this is the opposite of pretentiousness. You can't help but laugh at the ridiculous nature of what's unfolding in front of you. Lynch, as a detective, interrogating a suspect, a talking Monkey. All of the dialogue is purposefully delivered with cliche gusto. It's short, it's sweet, and it even has a song at the end. There's no much to digest and you're not going to ask what it's all about when it's over. Just enjoy the ride- for Lynch has graced us with another surreal work of (art).
