The film, written by “The Carmichael Show” writer Ari Katcher, who co-wrote with Ryan Welch, premiered at last year’s Sundance Film Festival. The film opens in medias res, with lifelong best friends Kevin (Abbott) and Val (Carmichael) about to shoot each other in the head outside of a strip club at 10 in the morning. Val thinks the only way to get it right is for the best friends to do it together. For the record: An earlier version of this review incorrectly stated that “On the Count of Three” premiered at this year’s Sundance Film Festival. The only flaw of “On the Count of Three” is that, like Kevin, it waffles right at the end.
