Long Shot is a Consistently Hilarious Instant Classic (Review)
Long Shot is 2019's first comedy hit. Not only is it a hit in 2019, but it'll go down as one of the best comedies of the 2000s. Overall, it is a pleasant surprise that'll make you cry from laughing in one scene, and then be surprisingly touching in another. Who knew...
