Crashes Before It Loads

This starts strong with its Y2K apocalypse party montage, but once that initial chaos settles, it's like watching a video freeze halfway through loading. By the end, i wondered, "am I supposed to be laughing, scared, or deeply invested in these cardboard cutouts?" I'm still not sure what tone they were going for...The direction feels like they filmed half the scenes on a Tuesday and the other half months later, then tried to glue it all together with bad ADR. The high school drama is so shallow it makes Degrassi look like Breaking Bad. And the horror? Yeah.... It's a no for me. CGI blood everywhere, practical effects nowhere, and the little makeup they did bother with was giving Spirit Halloween clearance rack.The comedy doesn't help much either. Most jokes are either so niche I felt like I needed a late-90s pop culture PhD or just plain bad. I laughed a few times, but not usually with the movie-definitely at it. And every time it tried to get serious it flopped. It's like the movie said, "Let's give them whiplash" and went full Don't Look Up tonal chaos, minus the preachy metaphors.To be fair, there are worse sc-fi horror movies out this year (AfrAId, anyone? Just me?), and worse comedies, too. But Y2K is just there. It's not a full meltdown like reviews may have you believe-it's more like a frozen screen and the mouse is stuck spinning. Fun to think about, frustrating to sit through.

Just doesn't really work.

It's hard to tell exactly where this movie goes wrong. Maybe it's that the beginning doesn't get you firmly enough on the leads side. Could have used better humor to do that, or maybe some more relatable and less cliched characterization.Whatever it is, when this movie started leaning into its emotional moments, and you can tell it's trying because of the music and style, it ended up alienating me because I didn't feel what it was trying to make me feel. And that continued right up thru the end of the movie.I'd say about half the humor landed for me, but that's not always the filmmakers fault.Most of the characters felt very stereotypical, and felt like they were trying to be brought to life for us, by just a couple extra zany details, instead anything that felt authentic.What it felt like, Kyle Mooney and Evan Winter forgive me if this wrong, is that money got behind this movie too early, or too quickly, and the script didn't make it past a first draft. Maybe, too, all the comedy was written in, and not improvised in the way that great comedy movies rely on for the real snappy humor that pops. And, I think in Editting they were giving the humor too much of a pause; too much space for what should have been audience laughter, in a way that also alienated me and probably others. And most of the humor was pretty toothless as well, especially when you compare it to the movies it's drawing influence from.So unfortunately this movie just feels mediocre; lazily trying to be heartfelt; I wish I had felt toward it what the filmmakers clearly thought I'd feel.

Really neat concept but other than a few laughs, it falls flat.

This is one I was looking forward to for a while and I had reasonable expectations for it. However what it ultimately became was kind of forgettable.Pros.The humor can really be on point here and there and there is a really good chemistry between the two leads. The best friend dynamic was really on point, with some Super Bad vibes. The aesthetic was also on point, as someone who was in high school during this period, they nailed it. There was some good side characters that really helped pull the weight of the film. Also some death scenes were funny.Cons.The story seemed so good at the beginning, it really set up the characters and world nicely but if you were expecting the fun times that the trailer teased, you will be disappointed. After the initial shock of Y2K begins, it really comes undone. There is a main character that dies and it just didn't feel warranted, at least not yet. Then another death of a main side character happens almost immediately afterwards for comic effect and its really funny but doesn't work overall because of the previous death needed more time to sink in, or not happen at all. So two of the funniest characters are dead in like 30 mins... Not a good sign of things to come.Then the characters just roam around with some side characters that were not the focus before but move into the spot light and it distracts from the main characters plight. Speaking of, he is just so bland and uninteresting that I couldn't care about him or his Crush(Laura) who also was bland, and they try so hard to make us like her but I couldn't.Combine this with a wasted cameo towards the end and a blah ending and this movie absolutely falls apart and wishing it made good with what the movie the trailer promised. Also the acting is very hit or miss.Overall, it's pretty forgettable but maybe it can be revisited for nostalgia, much like the movie. So meta.5/10.
