If after watching The Bear or Barry you are one of those who think (and rightly so) that comedy no longer makes you laugh or complain because the limits of humor have killed the genre in cinema and television, Netflix has released the perfect movie for you this weekend.

Nostalgic fans of the crude and somewhat vulgar humor of youthful classics like American Pie or Superbad will find a good successor to kill nostalgia in Incoming, the platform's cinematic release for this Friday.

What is it about

Four high school students face the biggest challenge of their young lives: their first high school party. The movie tells the story of one night in the life of this group of teenagers, the party they crash, and the chaos that ensues.

A movie that is no longer made

Created by Dave and John Chernin (sons of Peter Chernin, CEO of Fox), who previously wrote for It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and created The Mick, they claim they chose Incoming as their first feature film because as fans of high school comedies, they felt a civic responsibility towards teenagers in the United States.

Among their main influences include Superbad (2007), Can't Hardly Wait (1998), and Fast Times at Ridgemont High (1982).

"This is the kind of movie that hasn't been made in a while," says Dave in Tudum. "It always felt like there was one of these per generation. It was something silly that valued laughter above all else and that I think we really wanted to see."

The brothers ensure that they have been thinking about making this movie for over 15 years. "We had ideas for scenes and little moments written in notebooks," says John.

In the end, they found the structure that would connect those little moments. "We realized it was about four freshman students experiencing a strange identity crisis at the beginning of their lives," continues Dave. "That became the engine of the story."

The cast

Fans of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and Hacks will recognize Kaitlin Olson, who plays the mother of one of the movie's protagonists. "We begged her to do it," says Dave. "Kaitlin always gives you more than what's on the page and finds comedy everywhere that wasn't on the page."

Alongside Olson and Bobby Cannavale, recognizable faces in the cast include Mason Thames (The Black Phone, For All Mankind), Isabella Ferreira (Orange Is the New Black, Gray Matter), Bardia Seiri (Grey's Anatomy, Life in Pieces), Ali Gallo (Unhuman, The Sex Lives of College Girls), Ramon Reed, and Raphael Alejandro, among others.
