Nice flow to the album (0 more)

No real stand-out tracks (0 more)

You hear the beat of the first track and you know it's going to be a good Underworld album. This whole album seems to be more beat/bass focused than their more melodic ones, but it works well. Starts off quite energetic and bright at the beginning, then allows down and has a darker feel for tracks 4 and 5 before lightening up again towards the end. I didn't really dislike any tracks, although preferred the more energetic ones, but also nothing really stood out, unlike previous albums where there have been one or two tracks that I just love listening to again and again. If I had to pick a favourite track it would be the first one, "I Exhale".

Emma @ The Movies (1786 KP) rated The Happytime Murders (2017) in Movies

Childish, ridiculous nonsense... and that's why it's fun.

Something that films like this can be guilty of is taking a joke too far in a single scene. Happytime tap dances down that line and looks like it might stumble clear over but it does managed to just avoid it. Just.

Much like I didn't know I needed to hear Nic Cage saying "anal beads" in Mom & Dad, I didn't know that I needed to see a muppet jizz silly string.

It's not muppets like you know them, but there are some nostalgic drops in there. The one thing that I can't judge is whether this will stand up to being watched more than once. What I do know is that I wouldn't turn it off if it came on the TV.
