Wait, an R-rated comedy based on TV show about lifeguards running in slow motion. I was too young to ever really get into the show but now there’s the movie. I never imagined there’d ever be one and I definitely wouldn’t imagine Dwayne Johnson or Zac Efron in it but here we are. Despite my skepticism, there’s actually something here. It’s not great but it’s something. The comedy doesn’t work for me so far, with Efron being the best example of that, and the story looks heavy but predictable. Whether it all fits together remains to be seen. Baywatch releases May 19th, 2017.
