All I knew was the premise, that this is a musical comedy, and that it is based off something to make this the studio A24's first musical; this movie that has a very weird title is based on a Broadway musical called F*cking Identical Twins by Josh Sharp and Aaron Jackson, and having a movie with this title based on a Broadway musical with a title like that, I was not having any faith in it. After watching the movie, I will say that Dicks: The Musical (2023) is one of the worst musicals I have seen this year; this movie was annoying and unfunny from beginning to end, and despite the one hour and twenty-six-minute-long runtime, it felt longer than it should as I was watching it. Josh Sharp and Aaron Jackson, as Craig and Trevor who find out they are identical twins, were not good in the movie with their performances being annoying and over the top in a terrible way, along with them being hard to watch where you want to cringe because of the many things they do in the movie that is not funny. I like Nathan Lane, but as the dad in the movie, he was too over the top doing unexplained dumb things and a weird way of getting across a certain thing about himself; the mom played by Megan Mullally, who is a good actor, was weird and had me cringe at many lines of dialogue and scenes with her and Nathan Lane's character that was hard to watch. Plus, we have the appearance of Megan Thee Stallion as the boss of the main characters job, and she had a painful and annoying performance that was hard to watch with the scenes and song numbers she is in. All the songs in the movie are not good, though the singing is ok, the lip syncing did not look like it matched what is supposed to be said, and the songs were annoying to listen to along with the look of the song numbers being cringe worthy; I will also add that for a musical comedy it was not funny throughout the whole movie, and instead I cringed, was weirded about what was happening, and was wondering what was going on. This movie has a lot of weird and disturbing things involving sewer creatures, a flying talking *, and terrible scenes with this movie's version of God played by Bowen Yang; throughout the movie I was wondering when it was going to end because I did not care about anything going on, along with them completing the main plot of the movie and then doing something else entirely by the third act. The entire third act/third act climax was so weird and random with it trying to force a bad message by the end, along with a song they played at the end that had terrible lyrics that I hated listening to; the ending was weird and good to look at, and when the credits rolled, I was relived it was over. I highly suggest that you should not watch this unfunny and annoying musical comedy, when you can watch better musicals that have better songs, a better plot, better performances, likable characters, and a better experience so you can enjoy it more.

Very funny and raunchy film held together by the committed performances of the two leads, Josh Sharp and Aaron Jackson, as well as terrific turns by Nathan Lane and Megan Mullally as their eccentric parents. The film also has some well sung catchy songs, two hysterical creatures that have to be seen to be believed, and an amusing performance by Bowen Yang as God. The Premise: Two identical twins meet each other for the first time. Both men having been raised by a single biological parent, they set off on a mission to meet the parent they never knew and reunite them so they can be a family again. It's like The Parent Trap on crack. There are a couple of things that didn't work for me. Megan thee Stallion is poorly cast and unfunny as the men's boss. The crude lyrics can sometimes undermine a well written song with the final number especially questionable. But if you get camp and/or are gay you will probably love this film as I did. If you are neither of those and are easily offended, you may want to pass this by.

It has been such a long time since a movie makes me laugh out loud as many times as this one. What a pleasure!. I didn't want it to stop. Amazing cast, amazing songs and music. Perfect!. But a warning... it's not for everyone, specially by the end. I hope they would turn it into a real show, and I can predict a total success as it was 'The Book Of Mormon"... (It's in that vein... I'm not spoiling anything). But, if you love Will and Grace, and you know Natan Lane and Bowen Yang, you know what I'm talking about, and you are going to love it as much as I did. Leave your prejudice aside, relax and enjoy it as if getting a b.j... big joke, that is...

I don't even know what I just watched but I do know my friends and I laughed until our cheeks hurt. I am rarely shocked but this was out of control. In a good way, I think. NOT what I was expecting. I was expecting a good ole fashioned tongue in cheek musical like The Producers? Instead you get manic, hilarious off the wall movie musical. The sewer boys felt very Men In Black. Not sure if that's what they were referencing but it seemed like it. And Megan Mullally was hilarious and honestly a bit unrecognizable at first. Bowen Yang as God was a treat and Megan Thee Stallion stole a couple scenes.

This was possibly the worst thing i have ever seen. What on earth were the actors thinking, it wasn't even so bad its funny it was beyond that, it so wanted to be a new rocky horror picture show but failed miserably. If you find the humor in being obscene for no reason singing about cocks and vaginas,well then go ahead, why the talented cast agreed to be in this is beyond belief, if it reminded me of anything it would be a child trying to be shocking saying * and * and how tedious that quickly becomes, how or why this is getting good reviews the only redeeming quality was it ended, but sadly not fast enough.
