I was 10 minutes in and I was like they REALLLLLLLY wanna get the point across that this dude is the most useless "man" in the world.. Doesnt know whats going on at any point, ran by his women, has to sneak cigarettes and she has to tell him he can have a smoke on vacay, rations out pitty p*ssy to him while she throwing it at Ali, this man cant even out run his little spaced out dopamine addicted daughter on the beach, has no situational awareness while his wife has acute hearing and more on point when Ali and kid show up, doesnt have a weapon or thought to even defend family, literally says he is useless and begs another man..Ethan Hawke was such a a p*ssy in this
Ali was cool but him goin out of way for the other family leaving his daughter, smh.. Julia seemed like she a natural at that karen role
mastermind
Rest In Power Kobe
She also dated Matthew Perry
Where was a movie like this was supposed to go exactly? Ali's exposition at the end laid everything out there. I don't get what else people wanted out of this film that wasn't explained
Between Bacon's dialogue GH's in the car, I think they nailed what the film's message was in the end. They literally went through each phase with flashbacks to visually tie each point together...yet that wasn't enough? I don't get itThe most important aspect of the communication shutdown is the planes. They only showed a few planes drop. You’re supposed to put 2 n 2 together and realize that it’s likely THOUSANDS of planes falling from the sky. With NO explanation
So yes, people would absolutely lose their shyt and chaos/anarchy would ensue. And if you doubt that, go watch a 9/11 documentary. When that 2nd plane hit and people realized it wasn’t an accidentSo imagine thousands of planes falling with no explanation
Now, here’s where this movie failed: one of my favorite movies of all time is JFK. In the movie Donald Sutherland gives thismonologue where he breaks everything down for the audience. You NEED that. Most movies do it. Don’t leave it up to the audience trying to be cute. And this movie had the perfect opportunity to do that with the Kevin bacon scene but it wasn’t enough. A movie shouldn’t leave you unsatisfied. It ain’t cute or trendy it just takes away from the movie
shyt done hit the fanWhat did the deer and flamingoes symbolize?
There's layers to what they were saying in regards to entertainment with this movie.
People always use entertainment to escape the realities of the world. (We lived through COVID-19 and saw just how much people leaned on media to get them through it)...
The irony about this film and content, was that with everything being online and digital, in an event where there is no internet, physical media becomes valuable again.
They showed this with the DVD bunker stash and with the vinyl records they were dancing to. The daughter was attached to the character's and their stories. That's common with fans and human natural. And as sad as it may sound, it gave her some purpose.
