Bad Trip

Eric Andre, Lil Rey Howery and Tiffany Haddish bring us skit comedy and hidden camera pranks akin to Jackass, with a difference- They play characters on a journey through a shared plot of absurdity and misadventure.  It is not as clever as it wants to be, and very often the laughs do not land but when they do, it can be funny.  you should know what you are getting yourself into.  In one of the segments, a gorilla forces himself on a man sexually.  If you are still interested, you should watch it.  (4/10)
 
Boss Level
  
Frank Grillo has certainly become a name among the better action stars and he certainly deserves it.  
Roy Pulver (Grillo) is trapped in a day in which he in killed...over and over each time waking up knowing a little more about the timing- where to stand to escape death in the form of bullets, assassins and swords.  The cleverness comes, partly, in the comedy associated with the plot mentioned above.  Boss Level is fully aware of what it is and doesn't try to be more and is a damn fun ride.  Naomi Watts and Mel Gibson are great in their respective rolls and the Ex wife and villain.  (6.5/10)
