This Smells Bad

About This Movie

This Smells Bad is an intriguing blend of comedy and drama that captures the chaos of life. Set against the backdrop of a tragic event, it explores the fragility of success and the absurdity of existence. The pacing is a bit uneven, mirroring the protagonist's spiraling circumstances. The performances have a rawness that feels genuine, especially as Ricardo navigates the aftermath of the explosion. The tone swings from dark humor to poignant moments, creating an atmosphere that's both unsettling and oddly reflective. I can't help but appreciate the practical effects used in the explosion scene—it adds a gritty realism that enhances the emotional weight. Overall, it’s a film that lingers in your thoughts long after the credits roll.
