Screwed (2000)
6/10
Easy Movie to Watch
30 December 2020
Willard Fillmore (Norm Macdonald) is a life long butler to the pie mogul Miss Crock (Elaine Stritch). She works him like a dog, treats him like crap, and pays him peanuts. After one insult too many, Willard, with his friend Rusty (Dave Chappelle), decides to kidnap Miss Crock's dog Muffin and hold it for a million dollar ransom. The kidnapping went horribly wrong and the dog got away. Due to the botched kidnapping, Miss Crock thought that Willard had been kidnapped. Willard and Rusty decided to run with that scenario and increased the ransom to $5M. Things didn't go according to plan.

Dave Chappelle and Norm Macdonald together can only mean maximum silliness. The plot was actually not bad, the execution however, needed some work. There were some very funny moments while most of the movie was just mildly humorous. It's an easy carefree movie to sit back and watch at any time; no proper mood necessary.
