Family Camp 2022 720p WEB-DL x264
*Mild Spoilers ahead* So I am familiar with the skit guys, have watched some of their videos and quite enjoyed them (some even hilarious!) and I'm a Robert Amaya fan (who only has a supporting role but always fun to see) so they make a movie I check this out....the films title is kinda self explanatory but it basically turns into if Homer Simpson and Ned Flanders went camping together (only Ned Flanders is a funnier satire). It's a cliche but decent enough premise a family wanting to get out of the house and spend time at a camp together but for a movie called "Family Camp" most of the second half of the movie focuses on our two guys in the woods together away from their families. (With some jokes that land and some that blow) I am a Christian and as a Christian film it's kinda not good. Characters who are supposed to be Christ-following act the complete opposite by the second half. Speaking but not acting it. (There's even a scene where they even say "This has 'thou shall not steal' all over it" but they end up stealing it anyways. Christianity aside the characters just as characters can be quite annoying and over the top too (which can be tedious when one of those is one of the two main characters that were spending time with!) And a reveal near the end that was straight up idiotic! I hate to say some of these things because there are some ideas and elements here I enjoyed. They get straight to the point in the first 15 minutes, some decent gags and callbacks, and an interesting thought of the perfect family not being as they seem (seeming perfect bit secretly falling apart). As well as a few nice small messages here and there (even if they can get hidden in some of the issues mentioned) Christian movies get a bad rep for being "cheesy" and this is a good example of that, sometimes bad but some scenes can also be so over the top that it can be a tad fun. So not great and I honestly would recommend watching some skit guy videos instead (those are funnier anyways) however I am happy to see the skit guys with a movie and trying it out. Hopefully they improve and the next one will be better;)
