New crime caper comedy on Hulu: A raucous shoot ’em up throwback

If you’re a fan of crime caper comedies and enjoy a good time travel twist, Hulu’s new movie, “Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice,” might be right up your alley. Starring Vince Vaughn, James Marsden, and Eiza González, this raucous shoot ’em up throwback follows the wild and hilarious adventures of a criminal enforcer named Mike who teams up with his partner in crime, Nick, to survive the craziest night of their lives.

In this film, written and directed by Ben-David Grabinski, Mike finds himself caught in a whirlwind of time-traveling shenanigans that involve mob boss Sosa’s vengeful son, Jimmy Boy, and a cannibal hitman named the Barron. Nick, who hails from the future, must confront his past mistakes and enlist Mike’s help to set things right.

What sets “Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice” apart is its clever blend of genre references and self-aware humor that harks back to classic gangster movies of the past. While the time travel aspect adds a sci-fi twist to the narrative, it doesn’t overwhelm the story with unnecessary details, keeping the focus on the characters and their absurd predicaments.

With standout performances from the talented cast and Grabinski’s skillful direction, this entertaining comedy delivers plenty of laughs and excitement for fans of crime comedies and time travel adventures alike. So, if you’re in the mood for a fun and action-packed movie that doesn’t take itself too seriously, consider giving “Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice” a watch on Hulu.
