Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Probably my favorite comedy of 2019
Fred Flarsky (Seth Rogen) is a journalist who has recently quit his job. Trying to cheer him up his best friend Lance (O’Shea Jackson Jr. – Son of rapper Ice Cube) takes him to a fancy party to see Boys 2 Men. While there he runs into his ex baby-sitter and life long crush, Charlotte (Charlize Theron) who has grown up to be secretary of state under former actor turned president President Chambers (Bob Odenkirk). She is currently trying to broker a green planet deal between major countries. One conversation and a fall down a flight of stairs later Fred is Charlotte’s new speech writer. Comedy and drama ensue as the two’s friendship and working relationship blossom into romance. This movie took me by surprise, I was expecting humor but not the heart that the movie also provided. Rogen and Theron have great chemistry and this is easily Therone’s funniest film role ever. – Fun film fact I just learned when confirming none of her other film work is a better comedy, Charlize Therone’s first credited role on IMDB was in Children of the Corn 3 – O’Shea Jackson easily steals every scene he’s in and brings a lot of energy to his role. The movie itself also provides a few unexpected lessons on friendship and personal politics that are rather timely. Go see this movie if you like comedies. I can’t wait for it to be released so that I may see it again.

A smart, warm, and very funny romantic comedy
Long Shot delivers on everything you might want from a romantic comedy. The jokes consistently land and the central romance is believable and heartfelt. Charlize Theron is an underrated comedic actress as she proves once again in this film. Seth Rogen is often associated with bawdy humor, but he tends to be involved in projects that base their humor on character and that's the film's biggest strength. These are very real, fleshed-out, sympathetic characters and they elevate the film above the typical rom-com fare.

Predictable Fun!
Long Shot is a funny, yet predictable romantic comedy with a few surprises up its sleeve. It doesn't change the genre, nor does it stray from the formula, but you'll have a lot of fun if you're a Seth Rogen fan. This Blu-ray release comes with a good 1080p HD image, and while the Dolby Atmos track was overkill, it still sounded great. Bonus features are all worth your time as well. Recommended!
