Re: 30 Minutes or Less It's not as strong as Zombieland was, but 30 Minutes or Less is still fine enough entertainment. Everyone in it has their own time to shine and while there were never die hard laughs, it was consistent in its comedy. Another plus for R-rated comedy this year. *** (B+)

Re: 30 Minutes or Less 30 Minutes or Less is way off beat and seriously fucked up.
All joking aside, it is gutbustingly hilarious.
258 out of 5.
(Mind you, the movie has one big sore spot - - Jesse Eisenberg. Sickening just to behold at this point in his career, Eiseneisenbergbaby repels. Fortunately, Danny McBride is rock solid as always as Dwayne, and the rest of the supporting cast from Aziz Ansari as Chet the substitute teacher, to Michael Peña as Chango the hired killer, to Nick Swarsdon as Dwayne's brother Travis are all uproarious.)

Re: 30 Minutes or Less I think I laughed three times. I've never found Danny McBride or Aziz Ansari funny, and this doesn't change that. (I also tend to get really annoyed by improv movies, as you can tell you're just watching people riff with no purpose or goal to the dialogue.)

Re: 30 Minutes or Less Danny McBride is a fucking asshole, and Nick Swardson is basically incomprehensible. At least Eisenberg and Aziz bring the laughs.

Re: 30 Minutes or Less I found it to be pretty funny but instantly forgettable. A fun time-waster.

Re: 30 Minutes or Less Not bad...but I felt McBride tried too hard. It seemed out of place. And it's weird after watching The Social Network and Zombieland to see Eisenberg seem like he's just repeating a line instead of acting it, but this only happened a couple of times.

Re: 30 Minutes or Less I loved it. I thought it was hysterical and one of the better comedies of the year. 8/10
