365 Days. 365 Films.

Employees at a restaurant attempt to pass the time more effectively by playing games involving showing each other their genitals and spitting in people’s food. I really did want to like this film but besides a severe lack of direction and plot, the comedy was gross, banal and weak.

Writer and director, Rob McKittrick sadly went on to write a sequel, imaginatively named Still Waiting… Although, even sadder is that this is the one and only film he has ever directed, which is genuinely a little surprising since there’s nothing wrong with his direction. The film is trying too hard to be like American Pie too long after that moment had passed; it’s jam packed with inappropriately placed sex jokes and childish comedy in an adult setting. There were moments when my expectations peaked, but after the first five minutes it was more or less at a steady 0/10.

Ryan Reynolds brings the film up a notch because for some reason the ineptitude of the script almost resembles comedy coming from him. On the whole the acting and direction are both good, it’s just the script that lets everything else down. If you enjoy the same comedy as 13 year old boys, or if you are a 13 year old boy, you will probably enjoy this… If I was eight years younger it might be passable to me, but since watching genuinely funny and clever comedy, I realise that this is not it.

Was Waiting for it to end...
