The Elegant Gentleman's Guide to Knife Fighting (2013)
It was hard to watch all the way thru

I looked forward to this - "a random and ridiculous ride into weirdness" and recommended by brother-in-law.
Sorry guys, it was not that funny. I got each 'joke' in the first 10 seconds but after that each sketch just dragged on and felt contrived. The endings were just left hanging - no punchline, just sudden endings. The "weirdness" was not there either. Each sketch starts off normal then veers into off-centredness but definitely not weird or unexpected. The acting was good as was the staging.
There are Gilliam-type Monty-Python cartoons - short and a bit funny. Also not suitable for kids.
Seriously, the writers should do a total rethink. Try to do better dialogue, nuances of language, whatever.
