I really liked it a lot ! It's incredibly fun and energetic. I want more of that crazy cinema. Special cuteness prize for January Jack.

The most crazy Sundance 2021 movie
A barrage
Issachar & Zabulon, two scumbag brothers, have lost just about everything including a place to get food, now that they've lost one more thing - January Jack, their mother's beloved dog. And unless they get it back in 24 hours, they're out of her house.
Starring - as well as written and directed by along with his brother Lenny - Harpo Guit, this movie starts with the two leads (Maxi Delmelle plays the other brother) cooking their mother human feces for breakfast and her throwing up the film's title. If you don't run away at that point, maybe this is the film for you.
Debuting in the U. S. as part of the Midnight section of the Sundance Film Festival, this film is a barrage of scatological humor that is either going to be the hardest you've ever laughed or seventy minutes that feels stretched out beyond infinity.
There is one scene that made me laugh out loud, as one character repeatedly licks and sucks on a loaded gun, then starts gagging because he claims that someone rubbed peanuts all over it. It hit me just right, even if most of the rest of the movie didn't. But you just might find something that you like here.
The other positive that I can bring up is that the filmmaking is frenetic and full of energy. That said, if you're a dog person, you might want to skip the end of the movie.
Not mature
I don't really know where to start with this one. I had not heard of it, but after seeing it, I totally understand the controversy surrounding it. And why people are so split down the middle when it comes to the rating - or even if they think this is worth being called a movie. Although that goes a bit too far. No this is not the destruction of cinema as someone who saw this at Sundance allegedly wrote.
But let's get to our two main actors here. Who portray two adults ... who are anything but mature. And that is probably the most kind way of saying or describing what they are. Having said that, they are surrounded by similar characters. There is almost no one who I would remotely call "normal". Maybe a "bouncer"/doorman to a "party". Considering the kind of party or individual he works for, one might question that too.
A really strange movie to say the least. And one that has Jackass humor written all over it. Very rude, very immature, very obnoxious, very offensive ... and so many other things. You have to be in the right mood - and it has to be in a setting like (like midnight screenings or something to that effect) ... like the Fantasy Filmfest where I saw it.
