Writer/director Mikey Kvamme is after a specific speed of comedy in “Operation Taco Gary’s.” He’s in cartoon mode, hitting viewers with a rush of jokes, character interactions, and crazy situations of survival, barely stopping for a breath as the madcap nature of the material is prioritized more than anything else. The hits keep on coming in the feature, and there’s something admirable about Kvamme’s dedication to the lightning speed of complications and dangerous situations facing the main characters. However, is any of this actually funny? That will be a source of debate for most viewers of “Operation Taco Gary’s,” with its furious way with silliness never producing any real laughs. Kvamme keeps his picture brief and mostly contained to goofiness, but he’s short on wit, or even enjoyable nuttiness, out to win over his audience with velocity instead. Read the rest at Blu-ray.com
