Swear to Arrest the Murderer

Good movie!

As a whole, it's serviceable, has moments that are pretty funny (I'm guessing many didn't fully appreciate the Apolcalypto gag) and an opening about the game that promises some crazy madcap fun. But it doesn't quite get there and the film feels padded for its relatively shorter running time as the characters learn more about themselves. I wouldn't call this horr at all. It's almost like Jumanji but for relationships and lots of flashbacks to tell a story. This is more of a comedy than anything else, by far, which is also meant to mock LA and the film and TV / entertainment industry, which it does at times. Amusing but nothing extremely standout. It was clear to me which actor wrote the script because he has virtually all of the best lines and moments. For the most part, the actors deliver reasonably well to sell this low budget film although I felt Jon Bass as annoying and miscast. Perhaps that was the intention but that, and several moments in the film, the script felt like a script and didn't quite flow. A good example of this was the ending. Cute - but the scene leading up to it felt contrived in many ways for the sake of a setup, which was unnecessary. There are these rough moments throughout, including a disjointed dance scene that didn't have enough connection of the dots to be convincing. Still... there is talent in the room. Overall I liked it, being a strong average low budget film. It's a decent, watchable single view but not one you'd have to see again for the script or the performances. Unlike most of the pandemic straight to video garbage, this was a good effort and not regrettable.

The plot and characters are good; funny moments and cool likable cast. I would definitely recommend on a movie date or even alone good job HBOMax. It's like jumanji but with real people and real scenarios at least for me.

It's a quick movie for when you just wanna feel silly and have some laughs. The good thing about it is that it doesn't try to be more that it really is, and that's what makes it fun and decent.

I hadn't heard about the 2022 horror comedy "Gatlopp: Hell of a Game" prior to sitting down to watch it. So I wasn't sure what I was in for here. But I opted to give the movie a chance on the account of it being a horror comedy that I hadn't already seen. Writer Jim Mahoney managed to churn out an adequate enough script and storyline for "Gatlopp: Hell of a Game", however, it just wasn't outstanding or all that innovative. Sure, the movie was suitable enough for a single viewing, but it just doesn't have the contents to support multiple viewings. The storyline in "Gatlopp: Hell of a Game" was sort of reminiscent of the "Jumanji" movies in a way, though not as grand and spectacular, but also with a tad darker twist to it. I suppose that it why the movie found its way into the horror genre. It wasn't particularly scary though. The acting performances in the movie were good. Keep in mind, though, that the movie is carried by a relatively small cast ensemble. They actually did fairly well enough, given the material they had to work with. Sure, I will say that I was adequately entertained by "Gatlopp: Hell of a Game", though this is not a movie that I would be returning to a second time. Nor is it a movie that I would recommend horror comedy fans to rush out to get to watch; it just simply wasn't all that spectacular. My rating of director Alberto Belli's 2022 horror comedy "Gatlopp: Hell of a Game" lands on a five out of ten stars.

I like horror comedies, don't enjoy regular horror. There isn't much horror here, if any. A little bleeding is nor horror. The movie had some good actors, good premise but could not deliver on the "thrilling/dire need aspects of even expectations and very little "horror" too. Movie could not fully mix horror and comedy to deliver a good ride. There was definitely some interesting parts that made me smile, but it wasn't enough. If I had to rate: Comedy: 6/10 Horror: 2/10. (PG 9, ok for kids)

Give it a try you will not be disappointed, it's simple but nice, good acting, good comedy. Me and my family really enjoyed this show. It's way better than half the shows coming out these days. I hope they make good money off of the show. Critics keep pushing the wrong movies at cinemas, this show deserve big screen.

This movie is (in short version) Jumanji on a lower budget. Like way lower! But there in lies the compliment. Because low budget doesn't mean low quality, cause in my honest opinion, it holds the same quality as Jumanji (the original Jumanji, not the video game Jumanji). More or less. The comedy, super funny. The drama, touching. The horror, pretty chilling. The acting, well done. So to me, this movie deserves 7 stars.

The problem is the game and the characters aren't that interesting. Even at 1:20 it feels far too long. There's not one likable character or moment in the whole film. I didn't enjoy it and couldn't wait for it to be over. You can only spend so long waiting for something to happen before you realise nothing is going to happen. What you're seeing IS the film. There is no structure to the film. It's just one long first act. It goes nowhere. What's the payoff with this film? Nothing whatsoever. They're a bunch of boring characters that do nothing and the film goes nowhere. I didn't like it. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone.

Good movie!
