‘Baywatch’ Another Comedy that tries way too hard to be funny
I love comedies. With an original idea, a good story and a great cast they can be really good and make you laugh until it hurts. Zac Efron and Dwayne Johnson have been in many comedies already. Some have been good, and others have been painfully unfunny. I was able to see their newest movie Baywatch early and here is what I thought of it.
You can read the plot for Baywatch here:
Lifeguard Mitch Buchannon (Dwayne Johnson) and a brash new recruit (Zac Efron) uncover a criminal plot that threatens the future of the bay.
I really didn’t like Baywatch. I had a feeling it would be bad, but decided to give it a chance. It is just another comedy that tries too hard to get laughs from its audience. The plot is okay, and some of the cast are not bad. I liked Priyanka Chopra as the villain, it was good to see her try a new role out. The film gets a bit better towards the end, and there are a few nice cameos fans will enjoy. If you want to learn more about Baywatch click on this website.
Baywatch gets 2/10. It really is that bad. Most of the jokes are juvenile, ridiculous and just a feeble attempt at humor. There are a few good jokes, but they don’t happen often enough in this film. Some people may like it, but I wouldn’t recommend it.
Baywatch is out now. You can follow this movie on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
