Quentin Tarantino presents a Guy Ritchie film: Bicuriosity Killed the Cats
8 April 2018
The Queen is dead. Long live the queens.

9 Dead Gay Guys is so out there, it works. The relationship between our "heroes" still needs some work, but not necessarily in a sequel. I don't think we can make it to double digits - we're dropping like flies!

Two best blokes will do anything for money. Yeah. Anything. After a few "scores," they have their sights set on an even larger wad...but they'll have to go through 9 dead gay guys. (Roll credits!)

Not that they kill them, well not intentionally. You definitely have to suspend your disbelief here and think of those crime-filled, smart-ass British films with flare. A ton of flare.

I suspect this was a comedy and while some of it was funny, most of it was, ahhh, straight-filmmaking to me. The three Matrix Oracle Women were actually my favorite characters and made me laugh the loudest. They seemed hip to the squares behind them.

I'm kind of indifferent to the stereotypes portrayed here. Nothing was really offensive and even the Matt Damon-Dwarf was game for his short-comings.

Enough puns. Recommended, but not groundbreaking. Changes nothing and yet, entertained me.

***

Final thoughts: I wish I had a best bud like our main character had growing up. Certainly would've made things more...interesting. Maybe prepared me for...what was to come. (I never made a promise on the puns.)
