Rating: F

The sunk cost fallacy pushed me to the end of this fucking rubbish past its halfway point. I’m at a halfway point myself. I only have count-on-one-hand decades ahead of me, and was hence both mad and sad at myself for finishing this awful mess.

ChatGPT-3 could’ve produced a more polished version of the script which is, at best, a sophomore’s early draft for an end-of-term screenwriting project. I think this was used to launder money somehow. I can think of no other explanation for why some seasoned and well-compensated executive would greenlight this pile of shit.

Absolute waste of everyone’s time, both the people who made this and the people who see it. An entirely unnecessary 90-minute reminder of the abject mediocrity and suffocating hollowness and sadness of the moment we’re all living through.

I did not like this movie.
