It takes a lot more energy to do the action, and as much thought has gone into both, but I think I’d rather go into a movie expecting an action movie and then end up laughing a lot more than I anticipated, as opposed to going into a comedy and then there’s all this inexplicable action.
I’d say this one is action first and comedy second – which is not to say I don’t put as much energy into… well, that’s not exactly accurate.
It takes itself seriously.
Vincent D’Onofrio is a fucking beast and should be feared, and everyone in it is really skilled dramatic actors, for the most part, doing comedy, which is generally my favorite kind of comedy.
