Early Report: Reno 911!: Miami
The good people over at AICN have gotten their hands on what looks to be the first screening report to appear for Reno 911!: Miami. The report comes from somebody that does not watch the show religiously.
The setup is mercifully brief: each of the characters gets a short and effective introduction for the benefit of the unititiated. Within a few minutes the story moves from Reno to Miami and, shortly thereafter, hilarity (and wackiness!) begins to ensue. There are some very clever scenes early on that play on the twisted (and fairly complicated) relationships between each of the members of the cast. This is where both the T.V. show and the film shine. The broad physical comedy, the exaggerated sex jokes that take advantage of the "R" rating....they're all here. It's all a little hit and miss, but the interaction between each of the members of the Reno police department is golden. The biggest laughs in the movie come from the subtle (and sometimes not so subtle) exchanges between the core cast members who've been working together for several years now. That may sound odd coming from a show that is usually anything but subtle, but that's what worked for me.
The reviewer concludes that the film is all-around funny and that he may begin watching the series more often; which is definitely a good impression.
Check out the early report on Reno 911!: Miami over at AICN.
