kkoewokikasete Thirty seconds into Mystery Team, I was already laughing. And it stayed that good throughout the movie.This is like their sketch comedy, but in my opinion, better. The jokes are hilarious and constant, the plot pretty good although it's mostly a backdrop for the humour, and I thought every actor in this was great. The Derrick boys, your three main characters, are masters of facial expression. Donald Glover did the soundtrack too, which is a definite plus.If you want an idea what the movie's like, look up "Mystery Team Adventures: The Case of the Haunted Hotel" on youtube. It's a 5 minute short with the same characters.I cannot understand how this movie has such a low rating. I just can't. I made an IMDb account just to rate it 10 stars. Watch it!
stupidandcontagious1047 This movie just hit the right spot. It seamlessly combines irony, wit, awkward situations, and disguises. There were some minor things such as production value that held it back from being all it could be, but even that couldn't hold it back. Derrick Comedy just proves that you don't need big budgets and special effects to make good movies. The people who gave this movie bad reviews all probably enjoyed Transformers 2 and G.I. Joe. As for anyone who asks, "What demographic is this aimed at?" the answer is that it is aimed for people who don't sit in the back of comedy shows where they fold their arms and frown when the comic makes an inappropriate joke. The innocence of the main characters combine with the vileness of reality makes for a fun watch.
Caroline Anderson I loved it. Loved it all over. I was on the edge of my seat, but I kept falling over with laughter. It was written in a way that was perfectly suited to the comedic voices of Bobby Moynihan, Matt Walsh, Jon Daly, Aubrey Plaza, etc but still maintained a really strong voice in and of itself.Gun to my head, if I had to criticize it, I would say I could have used more Ben Schwartz. But I feel that way about EVERYTHING........So so so good. I cannot say enough good things about this movie!!!! I feel as though any negative reviewers on here probably wanted to see a simple, straight-forward comedy and that it is not. It is an ethically challenging movie with really artistic choices and deep belly uncontrollable laughs.Enjoy.
DamnYouGoogle Derrick Comedy are on the brink of being the next comedy wave...hell in a lot of ways they already are with their shorts. Every other person involved with DC seems to be getting big time roles in major TV shows like Community to The Office...but we aren't reviewing their worth to the comedy scene as a whole we are reviewing their debut feature length film, Mystery Team.There is a lot of promise in this movie, and some heartfelt laughs, but it might have been a tad to much for DC to handle with such little funds (as far as movies go) and lack of SCREEN WRITING experience and as the movie goes on the weaknesses turn from paper cuts to gaping wounds. DC tend to fall into a rut where they cant think of a funny situation to throw in the movie with the premise given so they throw in some misplaced fart, or rape, or poop jokes, and that coupled with weak acting leads to disastrous gaps in comedy. The performances of the stronger actors in the film like Donald Glover, and Aubrey Plaza (Who from what I know isn't affiliated with DC outside this movie) seem pulled down by their weaker counterparts, and one can only a assume a few more shorts and a drama class or two couldn't have hurt them in preparation for such a major project.Mystery Team does have to be taken with a grain of salt though. The movie is far from void of laughs, and at the end of the day it was 3 guys making a movie they envisioned and even though they I'm sure they'll even admit it was harder then they expected, it seems like they had a hell of a good time doing it.On some lesser but still major faults Donald Glovers score is horrible, and the screenplay in itself has some serious drags in it, I know I keep bringing it up but people should know how important it is to keep a comedy going, moving and moving if there isn't A situation a joke could be going into, there should be plot development not just hit or miss one liners, that in this case often miss.Im excited for the future of every main character in this movie....but as for Mystery Team as a whole a have to call it a lackluster movie with a heavy dose of one shot laughs.
