You would think that a film starring Zach Galifiniakis and Rob Corddry would get some kind of decent theatrical release, but the folks at Anchor Bay think otherwise. And such is the case for the shittily-titled action comedy “Operation: Endgame,” which makes it sound like a cheapie video game movie.
Well, in reality the thin plot is really not much to talk about. It centers on two teams of assassins who are forced to hunt each other down when their boss is murdered by a rogue agent. Boring, except when those teams of assassins include Galifianakis, Corddry, Adam Scott (“Party Down,” “Parks & Recreation”), Bob Odenkirk (“Mr. Show”), Jeffrey Tambor (“Arrested Development”), Maggie Q. and Ving Rhames. Yes, this looks pretty dumb, low-rent and it’s probably not great but we will fully admit that Corddry made us smile and we laughed out loud at Galifiniakis playing a diabetes suffering assassin. So we’ll definitely give this one a whirl.
The decent cast is rounded out by Emilie de Ravin (“Lost”), Joe Anderson (“The Crazies”), Ellen Barkin, Odette Yustman (“The Unborn”), and Brandon T. Jackson (“Tropic Thunder”).You can queue it up at NetFlix when its gets a DVD/BluRay release on July 27th. [/Film]
