A Halloween-themed picture without gloom, doom, and a rising body count?
“Fun Size” is the alternative to the holiday’s dark cinematic
offerings, pursing a farcical tone of teenage hijinks with an
unexpectedly PG-13 edge, giving those unable to sneak into R-rated

sense of humor to an otherwise ho-hum story of adolescent panic and
flirtation. The feature gets a little odd a times, a tonal choice that
does a fine job airing out the staleness of the script. Read the rest at Blu-ray.com
