User Reviews

 
Front Runner for worst release of 2017.
12 September 2017 | by Joetampa90See all my reviews

What a total piece of garbage Lemon was. My god. From the over done art house approach to the monotone boring protagonist this movie was absolute trash. I can appreciate an abstract or absurd comedy such as "The Comedy". But what makes this one fall flat on it's face is the fact that it just seems like it's being abstract for the sake of it rather than being a comedy that happens to be weird. It's also incredibly dull and is by NO means a legitimate piece of art house cinema. AVOID this movie you will be glad you did.
