Masterminds

“I’m going to assume that the true story was just a kernel here. A mere springboard for its talented ensemble to riff and develop a series of improbable characters and situations, but that’s also the problem with Masterminds. Too much anarchy and lunacy in service of nothing but those exact elements becomes numbing. For comedy to work there has to be a grounding element, a truth and goal at work to keep the hijinks from twisting away into madness for madness sake.

" DVD- 1hr. 34min. First Viewing When it isn't absurd for absurdity's sake, Masterminds mines some solid laughs from its strong cast and oddball energy.
