Let's Go to Prison (2006)
Dark comedy with likeable actors playing unlikeable characters
I discovered this movie after listening to Bob Odenkirk talking about it on a Smartless podcast. I never heard of the movie so I went into it with low expectations, but it actually wasn't that bad. I laughed out loud a few times, and was rather sympathetic to Will Arnett's character in his first prison experiences even though his character was a rich a**hole. I was hoping he and Dax's character would have developed more of a bromance, but oh well. I agree with Odenkirk that this movie had potential and I could see it being much bigger than it was. This was a fun one for Arnett and/or Dax fans. The ending credits are pretty funny.
SmartLess: On the Road (2023)
I thought this was freakin hilarious
First, I don't think anyone should be surprised by the trio's cars, private jet, hotel accommodations, etc. These are all successful actors and this is the life they have. Who cares. I'm entertained by their banter and dark humor. I can tell the "burns" are given with love. Their discussions about salads and bowel habits and historic landmarks make them look like dingalings, which is the point of the show.
I'm sure having conversation in front of an audience was strange. And they handled the rude fans/audience members well.
I was very impressed with Sean's piano playing, Will's singing, and Jason's hair.
