The Exchange
Comedy | Streaming: July 30 | Theaters: July 30 | IMDb
Starring: Ed Oxenbould, Avan Jogia, Justin Hartley, Jennifer Irwin, Paul Braunstein, Jayli Wolf
Synopsis: A socially awkward but highly enterprising teenager decides to acquire a ‘mail order best friend’; a sophisticated exchange student from France. Instead, he ends up importing his personal nightmare, a cologne-soaked, chain-smoking, sex-obsessed youth who quickly becomes the hero of his new community.
Cody’s Review: Alternate title: How to Stay Socially Awkward in 10 days, or He’s Not That. The Exchange is a classic ‘unlikely friendship’ story between one supremely awkward and unpopular high school student and a new foreign exchange student that becomes popular instantly upon arrival. Naturally, it follows with a predictable plot of ups and downs that help them get over their differences. While it doesn’t break from the formula in any meaningful ways, The Exchange has its own identity and feel that distances itself from similar mainstream movies. There’s plenty of snarky jokes and the story is solid, well-paced, and subtly captures the life of an outcast without becoming depressing. Overall, it’s a pretty decent comedy and I enjoyed watching it; but I doubt a second viewing is in the cards. The Exchange is good for the first time around, but there were several missed opportunities to make it something special that resonates with people for years to come. The characters are fun, but not endearing enough to make an impact; and the humor is squarely in the realm of good, but not excellent. Verdict: Yeah, watch it, it’s an enjoyable single-serving comedy. It won’t be headed to any ‘best of’ lists or inspiring you to new heights, but you can count on 90 minutes of casual cinematic escape.

Rock, Paper, Scissors
Comedy | Streaming: July 20 | IMDb
Starring: Vahe Sevani, Bjorn Yearwood, Jenna Aitken, Joey De Marco, Jeremy Dozier, Kristopher Maz, Lisa Stiles
Synopsis: Best friends Kelvin (Vahe Sevani, 2 Guys and a Girl) and Cheddar (Bjorn Yearwood, Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters), invariably avoiding the constant threat of wedgies, will do anything to stop being losers and start being the cool kids in school. Permanently placed in the friend zone by ladies, bullied on a daily basis by the jocks and dying to be noticed by anyone, they have one final chance: to win the ultra-cutthroat International Tournament of Rock Paper Scissors!
Cody’s Review: It’s childish, it’s stupid, and you’ll feel a little worse for watching it, but you’ll laugh along the way. Rock Paper Scissors is packed with unapologetic junior high humor, complete with stupid antics, low effort plots, and plenty of dick jokes. Imagine crossing American Pie (albeit even more juvenile) with a stereotypical 80s camp movie, and set it all in the raucous world of competitive Paper Rock Scissors tournaments. If you’re expecting something great here, stop it! This movie is dumb… and that’s what makes it enjoyable, assuming you can turn off your brain for 90 minutes to enjoy it. The story and characters aren’t deep, and there are plenty of lines that will leave you groaning, and the story doesn’t ask you to care. As for the technical stuff, it’s not hard to spot that this was shot on a fairly tight budget by some relatively inexperienced filmmakers. Some scenes have so-so lighting and poor color grades, there are occasional audio mistakes, the cast list doesn’t have any notable names, and none of it looks terribly polished. But who cares… none of these are big problems, and this isn’t the type of movie that should be judged harshly. Verdict: If you want a low-brow movie that makes no effort to be politically correct, Rock Paper Scissors is a good watch, and I assume a decent companion to the right supplements. But if you’re at all on the fence, this one probably isn’t for you.

From Director Craig Singer (Dark Ride, Perkins 14, Animal Room) comes a pulse-pounding, time-looping psychological thriller about a dream vacation gone very, very bad. Bobby Patterson (Michael Reed) is taking one last romantic shot at saving his rocky relationship with his girlfriend, Jules Rables (Augie Duke) on a weekend getaway to the picturesque island resort of Bog Grove. To their bewilderment, the sleepy beach town is curiously deserted, but they soon learn about its notorious and bloody history — one that’s about to repeat itself again and again… The pair’s relationship issues are quickly cast aside in order to overcome a demented cycle of terror in which they’re seemingly trapped. And no matter what great lengths they take to avoid it, Bobby and Jules awake at 6:45 each morning to a nightmarish chain of events with no escape.
