The new 'House Party' movie might really be a must-see
Low-key? The buzz about a new House Party movie seemed a little suspect at best but hardly 60 seconds into the red band trailer? I am convinced - Date Night goals might be fully activated once January 2023 arrives.
The new flick is skipping streaming services - for now - and only going to theaters to get the year started off right-right. The comedy is there but even more important? It’s modern enough and realistic enough with ample jokes to have you locked in and completely sold.
Comedy movies are always dicey and could go super wrong or super right for a Date Night but this looks like it could be fun and chill enough to really enjoy with other folks in the mood to chuckle it up. Reminder - this is one of those movies you want to have a bae with a great sense of humor pulling through for.
Your VIP ticket to New Line’s remix of the fan-favorite ‘90s classic. Aspiring club promoters and best buds Damon (Tosin Cole) and Kevin (Jacob Latimore) are barely keeping things together. Out of money, down on their luck and about to lose the roofs over their heads—and freshly fired from their low-lift jobs as house cleaners—the pair needs a huge windfall to make their problems go away. In a ‘what the hell?’ move, they decide to host the party of the year at an exclusive mansion, the site of their last cleaning job, which just happens to belong to none other than LeBron James. No permission? No problem. What could go wrong? How about a time traveling DJ, undependable security, a runaway guest list, one borrowed Lamborghini, angry rival promoters, a stolen championship ring, escalating property damage, an angry koala..? But also, one outrageous ride stacked with double-take cameos and timeless throwback tracks, R-rated comedy and two friends worth cheering for… you have to see to believe. After all, a night like this doesn’t come around more than once.
