Being a fan of the original show, I thought 'Reno 911: The Hunt for QAnon' was pretty entertaining. I guess if I had a minor critique, I would just echo what another reviewer said, which is that the format of the COPS parody is lost in the translation to feature film (even more so than it was in Reno 911: Miami), but I still enjoyed it. I think I just generally prefer their encounters with homeless crackheads, crippled strippers, and roller-skating male prostitutes on the streets of Reno to their grand adventures at sea or in Miami.
Though the title may put some people off (I saw some reviews to this effect), it's not really the kind of tedious, unearned political lecture from wealthy idiots you might be expecting. It's pretty much JUST an actual comedy. Yeah, obviously they're poking fun at QAnon people, but the whole film is satirical and doesn't seem particularly malicious.
It has some genuinely funny bits, like the plot-thread about Weigel running out of her anti-psychotic medication, the revelation for who "Q" is was clever, and actually pretty hilarious, and of course, an extended joke about diarrhea.
No one seems to notice that their prime suspect is former *acting* mayor of Miami, Jeff Spoder.
Not everything works, but mostly it does.
