The Wedding Trip (2021)
Cool Jeep, half decent movie
Original thought was someone built a nice Jeep for a prop car, again. Turns out it was the same Jeep.
Passable movie, a few good lines that hit and miss. Basic white girl gets ride to wedding from bad blind date. Predictable plot devices drive a few good lines that are solid hits to midfield but the runner is more often than not out at first base.
In the end not bad, not great. Slow to start and could have been tighter. Decent potential, hope to see the lead actress in more roles.
Special Unit (2006)
Bad bad TV (generally I like bad TV but this is just awful)
Aiming lower than Reno 911 I think Titus shot himself in the foot with this one. While I like Titus' humor, this show is not the vehicle for him - it plays on all the "common bad cop/detective" clichés, poorly. In his attempt to make something that will offend everyone I think he went too far to the point that it is painful to watch and so formulaic/predictable that it is not funny. It is Titus playing Titus as a renegade detective, at least he gets a cool car...
Now it was just the pilot but IMHO even Comedy Central is not that desperate for new programing - they could run the Daily Show from 3 years ago and it would get higher ratings than Special Unit ever would.
I watched Ishtar years ago just to see how bad the movie really was - trust me you need not see this - it is almost as bad as Ishtar.
Better luck next time Titus.
