Paint is a film that unfortunately falls flat in many areas. The screenplay is extremely generic and lacks any originality, making it hard to stay engaged with the story. The pacing is also strange and inconsistent, which detracts from any potential emotional moments. Furthermore, the comedic aspect of the film was terrible, with jokes that felt forced and never elicited any laughter. While the influence from Bob Ross is evident, the decision to paint him as a misogynistic womanizer just felt wrong and took away from the overall experience. In terms of performances, there is nothing particularly special to note. Owen Wilson does his best to portray the Bob Ross character and his comedic timing is impressive, but unfortunately, the weak screenplay doesn't allow him to fully shine. It's a shame because Wilson has proved himself to be a talented actor in the past, but even he can't salvage this film. The direction of the movie is absent, and it feels like there was little creativity put into the production. As mentioned earlier, the pacing is inconsistent and makes the film feel bland and tedious to watch. The 90-minute runtime is not particularly long, but I found myself counting down the seconds until it was over. In conclusion, Paint is a movie that misses the mark in almost every aspect. The screenplay is generic and lacks originality, the comedic aspect falls flat, the performances are nothing special, and the direction is absent. With its weird pacing and lack of creativity, the film is hard to watch, and there is nothing to make up for the terrible experience it provides. Score: 28% Verdict: Bad

MORE SPOILER-FREE MINI-REVIEWS @ www.msbreviews.com/movie-reviews/mini-reviews-2023-edition PAINT is... hum... I don't know. It's always entertaining to see Owen Wilson perform, and the actor shows he hasn't lost his iconic charm. Definitely a humorous flick, but it really didn't do anything for me. Overlong, aimless, and simply not engaging, at all. I'm not surprised it was overlooked by the vast majority of film lovers. Shoutout to one VERY cool shot of a mountain painted in a barn! Rating: C-
