The comedy Please Don't Destroy: The Treasure of Foggy Mountain is a hit-or-miss affair, but one that hits slightly more than it misses.
Back in the day, Albert Brooks made a nifty transition from producing “Saturday Night Live” shorts to full-blown movies. The Please Don’t Destroy trio don’t fare as well with “Please Don’t Destroy: The Treasure of Foggy Mountain,” an irreverent and silly comedy that, keeping NBC’s modern stooges in the family, premieres on its Peacock streaming service.
The "SNL" trio stretches their signature brand of comedy into a promising debut feature, even if Conan O'Brien gets most of the biggest laughs.
I was not alive in the 1990s. Naturally, there are plenty of cultural artifacts from that period outside of my understanding. Beanie Babies. The Macarena. Tamagotchis. Ross Perot. Whatever “nu metal” is. Saturday Night Live spin-off films certainly earn a spot on that list. I have been told by those older and wiser than myself
Please Don’t Destroy is thoroughly goofy, but there's not enough here to justify the first SNL movie in over a decade.
