The film spends half of its runtime criticizing them.

Sure did.

This was the first of many Covid movies.

It’s more a global warming movie.

 

[R.E.N. Spells Ren]

Really good satirical piece


It builds upon ridiculous stuff we’ve seen with COVID, so it’s hard to say any of this is far-fetched. The idea of the super wealthy escaping on a ship got me thinking…I can’t see it going down like that. I’m sure it would require quite a bit of support from non-passengers to get them loaded into cryogenic tanks and to get the spaceship off the ground. With an asteroid the size of Mount Everest barreling towards the earth seems plausible that support staff would lose all motivation to help these people escape. I know they were trying to drive home the unhappy ending, but I would’ve added a scene at the launch. Either show the support staff not launching or show a convo where staff uses ridiculous logic to help or decide not to block the launch.

It’s more a global warming movie.

You might be right, but the whole time I was watching it I thought the comet was just a vehicle to parody what happened with covid. There are too many Trump references.

That’s fair. The movie was developed before we heard of Covid-19.

If that's the case then they did a very good job predicting the future.

Government officials have loudly told us for years that either global warming isn’t real or “I believe in science” while allowing oil companies to go ham on the environment.

Movie of the year EASILY

Anyone watched Death to 2021 yet

 

[intra vires]

I thought it was mediocre cynical choir-preaching that should have been shorter.

Great cast though.

 

[DaddyFresh]

It’s not, “it would really be like this if something like this was occurring.” It’s more like, “this is already happening and we are like this.”

But yeah, this planet is fukked. We had a good run, though.

Great movie. Great message.

Yeah McKay said he had to switch up some of the script because the whole COVID ordeal made it pretty tame compared to what was already happening in real life lol

 

[Jean toomer]

Well done satire. Leo’s Network angry man take was a bit much but solid acting overall.

 

[Kaypain]

fukk the critics

This movie was dope, funny and truthful

 

[Kaypain]

Jonah Hill and Jennifer Lawrence back and forth banter

If anything, "subtley" is the poor critique for this film.

It's that obvious because people are that stupid. The joke is finally on them and they don't like it.
