‘The 2 Bobs’ packs Paramount
Ashamed to say it, but I missed most of Tim McCanlies’ bodaciously Austin comedy “The 2 Bobs” on Monday at the Paramount. Theater employees and SXSW crew agreed that audience and cast-crew turnout was atypically crazy, and that’s a good thing for McCanlies (“Secondhand Lions”) and Austin film.
Broad comedy, gaming geekdom, R-worthy naughtiness and popping candy colors captured by cinematographer PJ Raval infuse the movie with charm, laughs (the house roared) and accessibility. Local bands, local scenery, local faces make this a thickly Austin affair.

Great Movie!
Great script, acting, and comedy lend much to this future Cult Classic.
Not just for the techie or gamer crowd, 2 Bobs is for anyone with a sense of humor and a willingness to have fun for 80+ minutes.
