It by far entertains, like every movie should.

"Triloquist", is a rather strange film.At first I was expecting quite a bit, not because I thought this movie would be great, but I just thought it would be entertaining.Well, my expectations were satisfied, because I found "Triloquist", to be a very entertaining, and extremely joyful movie.Okay before I go into any main details about this film, let me just say "Triloquist", knows what kind of film it is, and they have fun with it.Like they don't over exceed anything to a point where it just becomes boring, or even to the point where the try to make every minute of it literal.So with that said about the film itself.The movie is fun, okay, like sure the acting is by far nothing to praise, and also this films humor, and I guess stupidity at times is a bit unsettling in a way, and makes you really hope that it's stupid humor, won't continue throughout the film 24/7.However "Triloquist" is also humorous in a dark and sarcastic way(which is a type of humor I love), and it's story, and atmosphere is fun, and rather entertaining.Overall Triloquist is a movie that I guess only the type of movie people who can enjoy these type of silly/slapstick/horror/comedy type of film, but if your the type that normally stays away from these type of films than I would really avoid Triloquist at all costs.
