30 Minutes or Less

** stars

In an era where comedy seems almost impossible to replicate, 30 Minutes or Less does nothing to retort this claim. Nothing but a movie dumped at the end of the summer with a few comedic stars attached to it to try and recoup its petite budget. Forgettable and harmless. Yawn. Where's the excitement of Get Him to the Greek? The epicness of The Hangover? The hilarious awkwardness of a nostalgic comedy like Superbad? This buddy comedy starring about a pizza delivery guy (Jesse Eisenberg) who gets a bomb strapped to his chest by a couple wannabe criminals (Danny McBride & Nick Swardson) and receives help from his school teacher best friend (Aziz Ansari) musters a few laughs, but fails to ignite into anything more than an afterthought. Not hard to watch, but just as easy to ignore.
