Spin Me Round
Directed by Jeff Baena
Written by Jeff Baena
Starring Alison Brie, Aubrey Plaza
Release Date August 19th, 2022
Spin Me Round is a bizarre movie. The comedy starring the lovely Allison Brie and the brilliant Aubrey Plaza has a ridiculous amount of promise and falls short. The idea behind the narrative is a good one, and with Brie and Plaza, along with supporting ringers such as Tim Heidecker and Molly Shannon, Spin Me Round should have been a no-brainer indie comedy sensation. Instead, director Jeff Baena throws in one twist too many and leaves one MAJOR plot thread dangling, leaving Spin Me Round to spin its wheels.
Spin Me Round tells the story of Amber (Allison Brie). Amber has been the manager of an Italian themed chain restaurant for most of her working life. She did try to leave and start her own restaurant but it didn’t work out. Thankfully, her old boss, played in a completely wasted cameo by Lil Rel Howery, brought her back and she seems content to work there for the foreseeable future.
