Adam Brody has been a high point of two recent fun genre flicks. In Shazam! he was the grown-up superhero version of sidekick Freddie. And in Ready or Not he was the brother-in-law that gave Samara Weaving’s bride a chance at survival in a crazy mansion of killers. In his next movie, the former Gilmore Girls and The O.C. actor plays Abe Applebaum, once a kid detective in the style of Encyclopedia Brown, he’s now a 32-year-old has been, not cutting it as an adult detective. But despite the title, The Kid Detective, arriving in theaters this weekend, is not a kids’ movie. Some theaters on the East Coast are offering $50 full-theater rentals and AMC has a $99 deal, or you can always wait for the home release likely coming soon.
