In the wake of a slew of Frozen look-alike nonsense, the old masters are resorting to rehash-heavy cash-grabs about pre-existing products like fidget spinners and bobbleheads. This particular dreck, directed by Kirk Wise (Atlantis, Hunchback of Notre Dame) and starring Cher as a bobblehead version of herself, is so bad that it almost genuinely shocks.
The movie’s premise is that Earl’s wife Binky cheated on him with her best friend, who happens to be the owner of a one-of-a-kind baseball player bobblehead that is worth a fortune. So she and the other bobbleheads band together to fight off trashy humans and their slobbery dog who crash their home hoping to swap the rare piece for a valuable real-life baseball player. Along the way, a wisecracking bobblehead Cher steps in to provide some words of wisdom.
Bobbleheads is out on digital and DVD this week and will be arriving on Netflix later. The movie features Jennifer Coolidge, Karen Fukuhara, Brenda Song, Luke Wilson, Khary Peyton, and Julian Sands alongside the Queen of Reinvention in her first voice role since Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again.
The trailer is below. If you watch it and aren’t horrified by the sight of a Cher bobblehead that is literally her own head on a stick, you’re part of the target audience for this atrocity. It tries to teach the requisite lessons about family, teamwork, and believing in yourself but it feels so desperate for meaning that its attempts at humor are grating rather than funny.
