Jeff Baena and Allison Brie's 'Spin Me Round' is a mishmash of genre that may prove maddening as it crashes together at every turn.
What is your dream vacation destination? For many, the likely answer to this question would be Florence, Italy. The reasons for this vary though much of it can likely be traced back to its cinematic identity in a variety of romantic films such as the enduring A Room with a View as well as less memorable thrillers like 2016’s Inferno. Whether we realize it or not, the magic of the movies can create a certain idea of a place in our minds.
When Amber arrives, much of her welcome feels a little off. The most concerning element of this is when their chaperone for the trip, Ben Sinclair as Ben, takes all their passports. While clearly a bit confused by this, Amber continues on and meets the quirky ensemble cast of characters. There is Tim Heidecker’s Fran, Molly Shannon’s Deb, Zach Woods’ Dana, Ayden Mayer’s Jen, and Debby Ryan’s Susie, all of whom go through awkward icebreaker activities as part of the corporate training.
At moments, it will feel like it is sneaking along in the shadow of an absurdist Tim & Eric sketch with Heidecker himself dryly delivering multiple lines that sound like they could have been ripped from his snarky cooking show segments. His character can often feel like he was meant to be a different movie entirely that just wandered into this one.
