Haven't you heard?
Laughing is GOOD for you!
And the best way to laugh starting June 16, 2015 is with Sony's WILD TALES, which is hilariously absurd from story to story.  This isn't one tale, it's TaleS plural.  And the more the merrier!

The most unexpected twists and turns are revealed which will make you giggle alone, but when you see the big picture putting all of these together in one big hit, the result is pure joy.  Imagine being on a plane where you all know the same person.  For all our restaurant owners and enthusiasts reading us, you'll love the rat poison and the stabbing.

Audi drivers, you might not drive so peacefully again!  A bit of the turtle and the hare comes into play with much more volatile results...the foreign aspect of this film does not matter, because laughter is UNIVERSAL-although of course this is SONY by brand name.  You'll think of this movie when you change tires.  You'll think of this movie when you get cake.  You'll think of this movie when you see a building detonated!  And, if you weren't turned off by weddings before this movie, just wait until the final chapter.

She marries the wrong guy.  She gives him the wrong finger.  Watch Wild Tales to see just how and why.

Murphy's Law also plays a starring role in WILD TALES.  Another name for this movie might be 101 Ways Life Can (blank) You.
  
If we had to use one word to describe this other than hilarious and any indication that it is going to make you laugh, we'd pick the word unique.  Whoever wrote the absolutely brilliant script has QUITE the imagination.  And probably quite the prank history as well to match!  Where is the cake knife at the end?  

What is kind of terrible is that you will find yourself laughing at the most horrible things imaginable-these poor victims.  However, they are FUNNY.

People are people all over the world.
And people are funny!

Wild Tales is Recommended by Whom You Know!  Take a walk on the Wild Side with us.

P.S. Happy Birthday Dynamite!
