I want to slap Ben

I want to slap Ben

really wanted to like this but I couldn’t get past its many shortcomings (lol). i LOVE justin min and i’m all for a kind of shitty protagonist who’s going on a journey but i really struggled to like or empathise with ben at all. any time i felt like there was going to be a moment where i warmed to him or sided with him, he somehow made himself look worse than the other annoying person lmao.

it had its moments and i enjoyed sherry cola so much!!! most of the scenes that got laughs out of me were hers but i just couldn’t click with it overall

haha nice. felt like a more thoughtful, long-form version of asian-american youtube shorts from the early 2010s a la wong fu. which makes sense given randall park’s experience in those spaces and his status as arguably the modern asian american media icon. not spectacular but nice.
