Outrageous new comedy The Machine sees comedian Bert Kreischer playing a fictionalised version of himself. Kreischer adapts his own stand-up material, playing a guy who is kidnapped, along with his father (played by Star Wars icon Hamill), by those he wronged in Russia some 20 years earlier while on a drunk college semester.
The movie screened in advance for Cineworld Unlimited members and we've canvassed a few of their opinions.
It was such a great fun movie! Incredibly whacky at the same time! @kbiegel and the rest of the screenwriters did a fantastic job writing the story and same with Bert Kriescher, @MarkHamill who did a brilliant job with their roles! Overall Score: 8.5/10! Grade: A-! Well Done All!

I went in totally blind, I had no idea who the guy was or what the story was but it was really entertaining, very funny in place (neck punch) and quite heartwarming between father and son, Mark Hamill was brilliant! 🤣⭐️⭐️⭐️
