Spiral disappointed me to great lengths. It was really about three minutes in when I figured out I didn’t like it at all.
The acting was dreadful. Chris Rock was so stiff in his delivery that he looked like he had a stick up his butt. Yeah, I said it. Stick to standing up — you’re good at that — but not so much with the acting.

There were no feelings brought out from the characters that made you care about what happens. There was zero connection to the audience. The story itself has been played out. It was totally predictable. Some movies can get away with that if other aspects are phenomenal. That didn’t happen here. It was just bad.
Grade: D+
About The Peetimes: I’ve got 2 Peetimes for you to choose from. Both will work well, but I’ll warn you after the 2nd Peetime the story reveals itself quickly.
There are no extra scenes during, or after, the end credits of Spiral. (What we mean by Anything Extra.)

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.
