I tried to watch that movie. But I quit it 15 minutes in.
What was even the point? It wasn’t funny, it wasn’t enjoyable, it wasn’t dramatic.
It’s like “look, here is a blatantly obvious metaphor on climate change” that’s our whole movie.
It seemed aimed for a very particular subset of people that wanted to feel a pat on the head or something. I feel like it’s the same people who enjoy that big ass climate change doom clock.
Just too much virtue signalling for my taste. Without actually making anything useful.
It’s a movie, it doesn’t need to be “useful”. Some people were entertained, some people were emotionally affected. It was successful art. And we’re still talking about it.
I’m just giving my opinion on why that movie is bad.
I know that probably in the States now even liking or not liking a movie is a political statement, and that some people “like it” just because they have to. But it’s a bad movie. I’ve watch a lot of crap, and most times I power through it to at least see the ending. Imagine how bad had to be that I thought that it wasn’t even worth to try to see the whole thing.
The movie isn’t for everyone even if you agree with its message. It’s a really dry satire. I enjoyed it because the movie made me feel like I was going crazy as I watched it, and that feeling has stuck with me.

Your comment is now an extension of that movie’s plot.
