Reviews And Overviews
Three would-be Encyclopedia Browns step into the world of grown-up crime in this independent comedy. When they were seven years old, "the Mystery Team" were three kids living in the same neighborhood in Oakdale who played at being precocious pre-teen detectives. With Jason (Donald Glover) as "the Master of Disguise," Duncan (D.C. Pierson) as "the Boy Genius" and Charlie (Dominic Dierkes) as "the Strongest Kid In Town," they would spend their afternoons getting to the bottom of such crimes as missing tricycles and stolen pies, charging ten cents (or some fruit roll-ups) for their services. However, while their peers have moved on to more mature pastimes now that they're eighteen years old, Jason Duncan and Charlie are hopeless nerds stuck in pre-adolescence as they prepare to graduate from high school. Convinced all they need to do is prove their crime-busting talents to regain the respect of their peers, the "Mystery Team" step into a new class of detective work when a little girl asks them to find out who killed her parents. The guys are up for the challenge, but it isn't long before dealing with real (and truly dangerous) criminals gets them in hot water. Created by members of the comedy troupe DERRICK, Mystery Team received its world premiere at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival
.Are you a fan of Derrick Comedy? Or do you want to see one of the most original and entertaining comedies in a long time? This upcoming Tuesday and Wednesday, Derrick Comedy will be hosting free sneak preview screenings of their film Mystery Team in New York City. Both screenings are first come, first serve and will be taking place at the Cinema Village theater in Manhattan. Let me tell you, if you have any common sense, you will be there one of these nights! Mystery Team is a frickin' awesome movie and this is one of those rare opportunities to not only see it early, but also see it with the cast and crew! More info below.
If I lived in New York City, I would be there without a doubt. I know that anyone who loves Derrick Comedy is already excited for Mystery Team anyway, but I'm pleading with those of you who aren't sure of this film yet or just don't know what to expect, to go anyway, take a risk, and enjoy it. I first saw this at Sundance (read my review) and absolutely loved it. I'm already desperate to see it a second time and I'm jealous of all of you in NYC that do get to go see this! So as I said, do yourself a big favor, and get down to the Cinema Village theater this Tuesday and/or Wednesday and see Mystery Team! Original comedy at its finest!
