We found it very funny…lots of cameos, old school references…etcThis message has been edited. Last edited by: Patriot, May 05, 2024 06:28 PM

My wife watched it a couple of nights ago. She was laughing her ass off. I'm going to give it a go at some point.

We found it funny as well. The cameos were great, wished there were more from Seinfeld. Puddy is the only one I can remember.

I caught it. My favorite character was the Corvair station wagon. Complete with fender skirts.

if you noticed, Jerry only drove rear engine cars in the movie,
Gaffigan did the best of anyone, Very few comedians have his level of acting ability.
It was like 70 "bits" laid end to end. Good he didn't put it in theaters, it would have died horribly.This message has been edited. Last edited by: bendable, May 09, 2024 07:36 PM

It was campy fun. I enjoyed it. So many cameos!

I liked the Mad Men scene.
I also found it interesting that the Post lady built mar-a-Lago.
Fun movie.

I've seen every episode of Seinfeld multiple times and I still laugh out loud to this day. That didn't happen a single time in this movie. I couldn't wait for it to be over, and the only reason I didn't stop watching before it ended, I wanted to see if anything would be funny.

I remember seeing that on a program on the History channel. Pretty neat history.
The movie was pretty good and had a couple lol parts I must admit.

Saw Seinfeld and got excited. Then saw Melissa McCarthy and Amy Schumer lost interest.

It sounds like an advertisement for a Kellog's product.
I used to love Pop-Tarts, and then, they reduced the size of the product and increased the price. No more, and I certainly wouldn't pay any money to see a movie so named.

Same here about the Seinfeld series.
I've been watching this movie, about 3 times now. I have to watch it again because I keep falling asleep in the middle of it. The story is a departure enough and it seems innocent fun. I like the kids in the garbage dumpsters.
But it isn't a laugh out loud movie for me either like the Seinfeld TV series.
"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

It's missing the meanness Larry David might bring, kind of expected in comedy these days. The film is ok, not a complete waste of time and Seinfeld brings enough good will IMO to make it watchable.

I’m half way through this as we speak. I’m just not finding it that funny at all.

Not to thread drift but if you have an Aldis down your way they have their brand of “Pop Tarts” and they are very inexpensive and as good if not better.
As for the movie/OP it intrigues me because of Seinfeld and will likely get to it sooner or later.
