What kind of watch this is
Nimrods is a 2026 comedy and music film directed by Lee Kirk. It runs 107 minutes. The premise involves a mistaken identity that drives a road trip from Kansas City to Los Angeles. Tommy, Fred, and Chad believe they are opening for Green Day on New Year’s Eve. They are not. The error is the engine. The journey is the consequence. It plays like a long, loud misunderstanding that refuses to correct itself.
What the critics said
Rotten Tomatoes counts 72% positive reviews from 58 critics, with an average rating of 6.2/10. The consensus notes the film overcomes its familiar road comedy elements with a charmingly scrappy DIY spirit. Metacritic is less enthusiastic, landing on a weighted average of 55/100 from 10 critics, a score it files under mixed or average. Dan Gentile of SFGate saw it differently, praising the three "spot-on" lead performances and saying the film "hits all the right notes." The divide is mild, but it exists.
How it did with audiences
TMDB users give Nimrods a 6.6 out of 10. That sits comfortably in the middle, where most releases land before anyone decides if they actually liked them. It is a score that suggests the film did its job without asking for a standing ovation. The audience kept their receipts, and the numbers show a polite nod rather than a cheering section.
