Review of Queenpins

Queenpins (2021)
6/10
Nice, amusing, sweet, but not laugh out loud funny or really special.

The best thing about this movie is the actual story, which was INSPIRED by an actual similar event of a young woman collecting coupons by the hundreds, until she realised that IF ONLY she could produce these FREE coupons herself, she would have actual REAL MONENY in her hands with these coupons! And so it goes...

The good: this movie has got a sweet, mellow kind of amusing humour, but it unfortunately never really elevates to laugh out loud humor, it stays nice ish, funny ish, but lacking spark and punch.

The bad: somehow this comedy never really lifts off, never really sets things on fire. I blame the direction and the timing of the jokes. Several reviewers already mentioned that somewhere there is a good movie burried in there, but it somehow did not come to fruition...

Mixed bag. Nice for 1 watch. Not terrible, but definitely not the greatest either.
