Pizza Movie Looks Ridiculous, And I Love It

Here is the official synopsis for Pizza Movie: "A shy college student and his reckless roommate set out on a simple mission to grab pizza, but after a strange dose of a mind-bending experimental drug, they're thrust into a chaotic night of absurd encounters, wild hallucinations, and unexpected revelations that could change their lives forever." This is Matarazzo's first major project after Stranger Things ended in December, and it is probably not the film many expected to see him in.

The film debuted on Friday at the SXSW film festival, and the early word is that the chemistry between Matarazzo and Giambrone carries the film and that it is way funnier than most thought it could be. I have been a fan of Giambrone for years now. I loved him on The Goldbergs, and I am happy that he is getting praise for this. Pizza Movie is going to be a welcome throwback to the comedies of the early 2000's, when things were kept simple, and the humor was stupid but funny. I think there is only one way to enjoy this film: order a pizza, sit back, and laugh at the hijinks. Sounds like a perfect time to me.
