THE SLEEPOVER debuts next Friday, August 21st on Netflix

THE SLEEPOVER debuts August 21st on Netflix
We are all in need of some fun movies, and lately Netflix has been surprising us with great productions on a lot of movie genres. Now it was time for a fun comedy and they are going to have a great movie to celebrate the end of summer and the begging on the school year.

About the movie

​In this family adventure-comedy, Clancy (Sadie Stanley) and her kid brother Kevin (Maxwell Simkins) discover that their seemingly normal stay-at-home mom Margot (Malin Åkerman) is actually a former high-end thief in the witness protection program. When both their mom and dad (Ken Marino) are kidnapped and forced to pull one last job with an ex-flame of Margot’s (Joe Manganiello), the siblings must team up to rescue their parents over the course of one action-packed night that they’ll never forget. The Sleepover is directed by Trish Sie (Pitch Perfect 3).

Interview with the cast

I was invited to virtually interview Malin Akerman, Sadie Stanley, Cree Cicchino, Ken Marino, Maxwell Simkins, and Lucas Jaye.  I knew the interview was going to be fun because the cast is simply amazing and down to earth.

Do you have a favorite funny moment that happened while off camera
​Ken: One of the most disgusting but also fun moments was the throw up scene. I hope it is as ridiculous as I remember it being. 
Maxwell: My favorite moment from behind the scenes is when we were in the back of the shot on the bridge and Ken pulled out his phone and started playing Umbrella. I started rapping the Jay-Z part and they started singing.
Lucas: Every time Ken was doing his improvisation comedy it was so hard keeping a straight face because he was just so good at it.

Do you have a favorite funny moment that happened while off camera
Cree: There were too many, I am going to say the library set, it was an interesting night. It was a real, serious, practice library. We couldn’t touch anything , it was late at night. I remember having the cape on and running up the stairs into this big beautiful library and having our Hogwarts moment together.
Sadie: That reminds me of the other section we did in the library. I was behind the camera dying laughing the entire time. Cree is the last one to go through the tunnel and she goes on this whole rant about how she doesn’t want this adventure and this is the scary part in the movies where the four children go. And it was so self-aware, so witty, and quick that it made me laugh so hard. ​
Malin: It’s hard to say just one I think. I have to say we had a lot of laughs on set, some of them were laughing together, some of them were laughing at Ken Marino.  When Ken had to do the vomiting scene, it was gross and funny all at once.

Did we like it?

Yes we did. The movie is  fun and action-packed so it will keep you entertained. I would say kids from 8 to 14 year would enjoy it the most. It is a little predictable for adults, but I still enjoyed it and didn't fall asleep even though I saw the movie at night after a long day at work.

Ken Marino character has the best dad jokes, so that make the movie very enjoyable. You can see the cast had a great time while filming because the end product was very cohesive. They were all funny and the characters had good development of the story.
