Best Boy (BB): When asked if I wanted to review Year of the Rabbit, one of Matt Berry’s many, recent vehicles, my answer was “Of course!” Some of you will know Matt as Lasszlo from the recent TV series What We Do in the Shadows, but I’ve been a fan since I stumbled across videos of him online from the show Snuffbox (with Rich Fulcher) in 2006. Matt has quite a bit of skill at playing a loud-mouth, know-it-all, misogynistic douchebag that manages to get more laughs than outrage. While his characters (and occasionally many other elements from the shows he is in) can be problematic, the viewer feels comfortable to laugh at how terrible it is because they are constantly being proven wrong and knocked down a peg.
