This was a fun movie that reminded me a lot of Project Power so much so that they should just make a Jamie Foxx Hawaiian Shirt trilogy at this point. I mean he even drives a similar blue pool cleaning pickup truck here, coincidence? What's the connection? This movie really is a plethora of action, horror, and comedy, featuring some great choreographed fight scenes (as if vampires suddenly have this explosive MMA background) and Michael Bay inspired car chases. The sun drenched, over-saturated visuals were also a nice treat. While those were all great, I feel that they really found a groove with the comedy, especially with Dave Franco and his transition from rookie to vampire to badass. He was great as the sidekick and comedic relief, busting out his comedic chops as we've seen in Neighbors and 21 Jump Street. Makes me wish they incorporated more of that into the overall product. Despite the high points, I felt the ending was a little lackluster, and not a big enough payoff considering the big action set pieces leading up to it. But all in all, it's a fun little popcorn movie that serves its purpose.
