John Mulaney & the Sack Lunch Bunch (2019)
Funny For Kids & Adults!
If you like quirky humor this is a good one. It's John Mulaney's throwback answer to modern kids shows - but there is plenty of humor for adults! I watched it with my two kids and wife (who isn't a big Mulaney fan)...more on that in a minute.
No one is unbiased, but you shouldn't watch/review a film if you hate the writer/actor (as some reviewers have). I'll admit I find John Mulaney really funny. If you're not sure, pull up a quick YouTube video and try him out.
This film includes unscripted kids thoughts, scripted sketches, and mixes of the two. The genius of the film are the interspersed questions for kids about real fears and their unscripted answers. Each of the sketches are pretty good and had my 10-year-old daughter and 13-year-old son laughing out loud. My wife (the poor not-so-Mulaney-fan) even laughed and said she enjoyed it. IMO the strongest parts were at the beginning and end with a slight sag in the middle. Overall this is a great family film with quirky, random humor and meaningful conversations with our future entertainers. Enjoy!
