12.30.21Netflix This wasn't very good. I think when the message overtakes entertainment, it doesn't work as either. It's not winning any arguments and as a comedy it's not funny. All you're left with is a bunch of mediocre scenes and oddly-chosen inserts of random Earth things weighing down the single-joke premise of the film. Maybe I'm biased and because I'm an American the jokes are more sad than funny, but this is destined to be one of many many many satirical Trump backlash movies in this era (assuming a comet doesn't kill us all). Basically I spent the movie waiting to see if they'd blow up the world or not, and was left feeling like the choice they made was an odd one. Oh well!
