Like i don’t like comedy as as genre but when it mixes with action or thrillers it’s a complete shitshow. Characters make weird decisions , responds to the situation in stupid ways , characters cracking joke while someones losing their head , makes plot holes as in that’s so stupid no one would do that it’s only there to advance plot , makes remarks not suited to the situation all so they can sneak in some one liners or cringe jokes. There are aldready comedy movies let them enjoy that and let others enjoy other genres . Mixing comedy with other genres ruins an othervise good movie.
Comedy can give you a much needed break between heavy moments. Sometimes when media is just pure bleak, it can be hard to feel like there’s a point to the hero’s victory if everything is going to suck, anyway. Characters having fun makes it seem like they have something to look forward to.
That being said, I hate it when movies and shows in particular get carried away and can’t let a serious moment play out without slipping in a quip. The emotional scenes need room to breathe, too.
