Netflix's 'Incoming' Struggles to Match 'Superbad' Legacy

The new teen comedy directed by 'It's Always Sunny' veterans aims high but falls short in humor and execution.

Overview

  • 'Incoming' centers on four freshmen navigating their first day of high school.
  • The film features a mix of slapstick and gross-out humor reminiscent of older comedies.
  • Critics note the movie's lack of comic timing and uneven direction.
  • The cast includes Mason Thames, Isabella Ferreira, and Bobby Cannavale.
  • While aiming to be a modern classic, 'Incoming' fails to capture the magic of its predecessors.
