Jack Black and Jason Momoa Make A Minecraft Movie a Comic Delight
It feels like a small miracle that this video-game adaptation is so funny, lively, and light on its feet.
The particular charm of A Minecraft Movie lies in the way that it combines Black’s deranged vitality with those of his co-stars, particularly Jason Momoa as a has-been gamer and ’80s refugee still living off his past arcade triumphs. Close on their heels are Henry’s older sister, Natalie (Emma Myers), and Dawn (Danielle Brooks), a local real-estate agent who also runs a traveling zoo out of her car. A Minecraft Movie was directed by Jared Hess, who burst onto the scene with the indie hit Napoleon Dynamite more than two decades ago and then followed it up with the luchador comedy Nacho Libre(also starring Black).
