I went and saw Licorice Pizza and was kind of excited to see what the world looked like in 1973, the year I was born. I walked out realizing that I’m really happy that we are born without the ability to talk, to walk or to rationalize things. I’m so happy that the 70’s were over by the time I could understand the world a little better. Dear Lord, this movie was bad.
I’m baffled that this movie has an 8.2/10 rating on IMDB. I’ve read about twenty reviews and now here I sit in complete confusion. I’m going to stand proud and declare that this movie was by far the worst of 2021.
Not one single character appealed to me. From the pimply face of an annoying 15-year-old to a 25-year-old female that makes women look bad. (We’re not all wishy-washy like this poor excuse of an independent woman.) Technically she wasn’t independent, since she still lived at home and was messing with a 15-year-old. Who does that? Perhaps Mary Kay Letourneau.

Even with all the cameo roles, the movie couldn’t be saved. For the life of me, I can’t figure out why Bradley Cooper, Sean Penn, and John C. Reilly took the time to appear in this atrocious attempt at art.
Insert barfy face here.
Save your money, time, and patience. I wouldn’t recommend this movie to anyone.
Grade: WTF
About The Peetimes: This is a pretty long movie. I’ve got 3 solid choices for you to use.
There are no extra scenes during, or after, the end credits of Licorice Pizza. (What we mean by Anything Extra.)
Plot
LICORICE PIZZA is the story of Alana Kane and Gary Valentine growing up, running around and falling in love in the San Fernando Valley, 1973. Written and Directed by Paul Thomas Anderson, the film tracks the treacherous navigation of first love.
What people are saying about the RunPee app.
Brilliant idea with great information
I’ve been using RunPee for a few years now and it’s basically a requirement of going to the movies for me. The best part of course are the “pee times” that give you cues, synopses and times for when you can pee without missing the most important parts of the movie. There is also information about the credits- length, extras and if there are any extra scenes at the wayyy end. Super helpful to just know that it is or isn’t worth staying. There is a timer function that will buzz your phone when it’s a good time to pee. I also appreciate that the app is very conscientious about it being an app you use in a theater- dark background, all silent alarms etc. I will always enjoy the experience of the theater even if I could watch things at home- but I’ve even used it at home to check for things like after credit scenes or other information too.

RunPee.com owes RunPee Sis a huge debt of gratitude. She sees any movie needed with no complaints and has done so for ten years (even basing Thanksgiving and Christmas family festivities around the seeing films). In 2015 Sis ran the entire RunPee enterprise herself, while RunPee Dan, Jilly and Mom went traipsing off to Europe. Sis is the spider in the web holding the RunPee family together — besides being a funny, well rounded person, and a joyous pleasure to be around. Her favorite films start and end with horror (which thank goodness she’s happy to see, since most of us don’t have the stomach for it) — but also likes silly comedies, sad dramas, and musicals of all types. If you’ve used a Peetime for a scary film, you probably have RunPee Sis to thank for it.
Favorite movie genre: Horror, horror, and more horror. The more disturbing, the better. Period.
