Well, this 2021 comedy was actually more enjoyable than I had initially anticipated it to be.

When I sat down to watch "The Gingerweed Man" from writers Charles Band, Brooks Davis and Kent Roudebush I must admit that I wasn't really expecting much in terms of this being an enjoyable movie. But I am thrilled to say that the movie actually turned out to be rather fun.

The storyline is simplistic and really easy to follow. But luckily it wasn't the storyline that carried the movie here.

Nay, it was the characters that carried the show. And the Gingerweed Man character was a rather unique and hilarious character, let me just tell you that. Not only was the design of the character and his buddies great fun and just really likeable, but the dialogue was also well-written for these offbeat characters.

The effects in the movie are insanely low-key and low-budget, but it works so well in favor of the movie. And I will say that the dubious effects actually make up half of the enjoyment of the entire movie.

You have to have a particular sense of humor in order to enjoy a short movie such as "The Gingerweed Man", no doubt about it. I found "The Gingerweed Man" to be a great fun watch, and it is definitely a movie that I can recommend you sit down if you need a funny break.

My rating of Director Brooks Davis' 2021 movie "The Gingerweed Man" lands on a well-deserved six out of ten stars. This was so strange that it was enjoyable.
