First look here via EW article.

How has he never been asked about this? Even Ginger Minj would second guess saying that.

 

[GNL]

Is this going to be a feature length comedy challenge? I pray for humanity if so.

[jyxz]

‘From the director of Hairspray’ should be heavily asterisked

(No, not that one)

 

[Joseph]

I’m sorry but this sounds fucking dreadful

 

[straightorbroken]

It does and I can't wait. I hope Ginger runs away with the whole picture actually - she will during the press junkets at least, since the internet gays will be analysing every word.

 

[Lucille]

I CAN’T WAIT!

 

[Pipo]

I’m sorry but this sounds fucking dreadful

No doubt it'll be better than the Labubu movie, so bonus points!

 

[Joseph]

 

[straightorbroken]

Worse than I could ever have hoped for.

 

[GNL]

CHARO?!

 

[Lucille]

I will be seated.

 

[VoR]

I will be seated.

As will I. Just not in the same room.

 

[funky]

I have to hand it to them, it’s the campest film title

 

[Agneeta]

I regret to say the trailer made me smile.

 

[Iguana]

Kind of looks great

 

[cwej]

That actually looks really fun

 

[Joseph]

I’m sorry but this sounds fucking dreadful

Ok but it looks fucking excellent

The trailer sold me on it!

 

[Pipo]

What the ACTUAL fuck?

Hardly anywhere of note in the reviews yet, though…

But I don’t think it looks like a train wreck- pun intended.

 

[straightorbroken]

Maybe the acting challenges have been so bad on the show as Ru has been saving the good lines for this. Doubt it though. I'm expecting big things from Ginger.

 

[Music]

I wonder if this will get a UK release, if not hopefully it's on WOW Presents.

 

[Pipo]

Adjusted today and debuts with 88% Certified Fresh, which is still not too shabby.

 

[straightorbroken]

Guardian has given it 4 stars. Good lord.

Just came into post this! ASTONISHING!

 

[Tetris-Rock]

I have low key been hoping this is actually good, or at least bad in an entertaining way. We need more modern camp classics!

 

[Lucille]

This seminal piece of art!

 

[FannyFaudrey]

“Further down, the comedy Stop! That! Train! opened to $2 million from 1,161 theaters. Led by RuPaul, the parody pleased its target crowd and drew warm reviews.”

 

[straightorbroken]

3 million at the box office now. Not out in the UK until August. Maybe it could crawl up a bit performance wise, but I'm guessing it could still have a chance at making its money back from distribution.

 

[Joseph]

This was much better than it had a right to be.

 

[Pipo]

This was much better than it had a right to be.

The Michelle Gellar recurring gag had me in stitches every time.

 

[straightorbroken]

How bizarre to have a song called Look Over There and not have Jaida cameo.

Marcia should never have been cast in this.

Anyway, nearly finished and it's racing towards a 1.

Ru handles her scenes well. Brooklyn is reasonable. It's just the abysmal writing.

 

[Joseph]

Marcia is a wet fish in every scene (much like real life). She definitely rets on pretty.

 

[straightorbroken]

By sheer force of will I finished this.

Latrice also handled some moments well, but she also mumbled a few of her deliveries.

The box office looks pitiful. I've no idea if streaming outlets will make up the difference though.

 

[Joseph]

I think Ru, Ginger, Juju and Brooklyn did really well (for a drag race movie). Symone did her usual. Marcia was useless.

Brian Jordan Alvarez was funny (yes I know he’s “cancelled”), Evan Mulrooney was great and can spit in my mouth and Sarah Michelle was well used. A lot of the cameos were giggle worthy.

I doubt this made more than 28 dollars but the AI budget was probably the most expensive part.

 

[straightorbroken]

Symone was hugely disappointing. I was expecting some of her accents to constantly pull focus.

 

[Joseph]

Symone was hugely disappointing. I was expecting some of her accents to constantly pull focus.

Yeah I was expecting to be laughing like mad over her as she is typically pretty funny in general but it was very one note (again writing issue not her I’m assuming)
