The Honeymooners

After the last entry "The Office (UK)", you may think that I have a soft spot for portrayals of working class life. After watching The Honeymooners, clearly I have abandoned all such sentiments.

The Honeymooners is a big screen send up of the once "classic" TV show bearing the same name. The mvie follows the lives of Ralph Kramden, Ed Norton and their wives Alice and Trixie, as Ralph attempts to make the jump from struggling working class to anything else. While the result could have been a piquant social commentary, is a flat and surprisingly PG humored picture. In other words, "Mike Epps is not funny if he dosen't wild out."

I am not sure why, but all the jokes were made to be really, really corny. Perhaps this was meant to be a tribute to the old Honeymooners show but as a feature movie I just don't want to see recycled TV humor.

There are some funny moments; none come to mind but I am sure I laughed at some point...

So I can't go on thinking about this waste of time. Here is the score 3/1,000,000.

Not good.
