I think Mrs C_S and YoungAdult#1 were watching this while laid up on the sofas while flashing their Covid status on their mobiles
( YoungAdult#2 sweating it out in bed - not feeling good - me? Absofuckingloutely fine - well - relatively speaking, being able to cook and bottle-wash )
Iāve just read the IMDB reviews, after watching the first 20 minutes or so of the film, to say their feelings about the movie donāt match yours would be an understatementā¦
So, after watching the movie myself I think that IMDB reviews are way off of the mark, itās a good popcorn movie with potholes you could drive a tank through but, overall, itās not that bad.
I wonder if people are paid to write bad IMDB reviews like they are for good Amazon reviews??
This is something that the writers should have complete control over. I think itās the result of just making stuff to a budget. Either not enough time to shake ideas down, or not able to film the scenes that would have made sense of something.
Seems the fault lies with the studio not the writers/makers.
They barged in demanding changes & so 3rd Act is kind of messy.
But it is a perfect Sunday afternoon movie not every film needs to have an utterly Evil bad guy, (are you listening Star Trek Kelvin?) makes a change for them to be āmisledā in that direction by forces they cant control/were unaware of.
