I overheard a British dude in the hallway say “that was the most derivative shit I’ve ever seen.”
Anyway, I thought it was great.

The Toxic Avenger 2023
I’m not sure how this will play for everybody, but if you are, or ever were, a Troma acolyte, this will absolutely hit the sweet spot. A bigger budget than your standard Tromas, it feels both expensive and cheap at the same time (that’s a compliment, btw). A little slicker, but with the same dumb, juvenile gutter humor. The real key is Peter Dinklage as Winston/Toxie, bringing a level of dramatic depth heretofore unseen in a Toxie movie (while also saying lines like “I’m gonna have to whip out my dick”).
