Show more >> If you're in the mood for a quirky sci-fi comedy, The Second Best Hospital in the Galaxy might just tickle your fancy. It’s not your typical blockbuster, but that’s part of its charm. The antics of Dr. Sleech and Dr. Klak are equal parts hilarious and absurd, leading to some laugh-out-loud moments as they deal with everything from anxiety-eating parasites to time loops. However, the film sometimes feels like it tries a bit too hard to be zany, which can detract from the overall experience. The performances are strong, particularly the dynamic between the two leads, who bring warmth to their bizarre situations. While it may not be for everyone, it certainly has its moments and is worth a watch for fans of the genre. Show less
