‘Moronic behavior on a level of almost art’: Mark Hamill offers unorthodox praise for ‘The Machine’

Cinemas are in for quite the roundup of debutants this weekend; beyond the obvious top biller in The Little Mermaid, moviegoers will also be greeted with new Robert De Niro movie About My Father, Gerard Butler’s second mediocre action film of 2023 in Kandahar, A24’s new Julia Louis-Dreyfus-led comedy-drama You Hurt My Feelings, and The Machine, which easily takes the cake as the box office’s biggest maverick this weekend.

Loosely based on comedian Bert Kreischer’s real-life involvement with the Russian mafia (a piece of the comedian’s life that’s since been immortalized in his famous stand-up bit), The Machine stars Bert Kreischer as a fictionalized version of himself who, along with his father (played by Mark Hamill of all people), gets kidnapped by the Russian mafia as payback for all the problems he caused them back in the 90s.
