Don’t look up

Anybody seen it? Watched it last night on Netflix. Hilarious with a big dig at the way the world is going. Great cast as well, Streep,Di Caprio,Rylance, Blanchett.Mark rylance in particular is great as the evil genius.
 
Not that impressed. Very typical Netflix output. It's almost as if they have a checklust they have to tick off for each of their releases. Full of virtue signalling, unnecessary use of "fuck", check
Glamorise smoking, check
drug references, check,
Geeky asthmatic scientist, based on Big Bang Leonard, check.
Idiot white amaricans, check.
Plot full of holes, plus
Streep totally overplays her part.
But if you can get past that and suspend belief, reasonably entertaining.
 
Have to disagree nwf. But that is the beauty of films and Tv. I happen to think that only fools and horses is overrated, but I realise I am in a minority of about 2% of the population.
 
I thought it was very average. Started well, but I thought the satire was very American in that it was a bit too obvious IMO. It was as though they thought let’s get in a few big stars and that’ll be enough to really elevate it to a high level. Yes I know they were taking the piss but it was obvious piss taking. Thought the last 30 mins dragged. 5/10.
