perhaps a better titel would be:
Leave it in the trash.

I would not support any of those left wing actors by watching it or spending money on it.
That said, it is afree country yet so it is an individual perogotive of the individual..

Glad you saw some amusemnt though..

How much SNOW have you seen there already?

Have you ever watched a movie that was SO bad that you half thought it must be a comedy?

This evening, my wife and I watched the new Netflix release "Don't Look Up" and I found myself thinking just that. The joke was on me as it turned out. Don't Look Up *is* a comedy. But not a very good one. I was halfway through it before it became clear that the bad acting, dumb dialog and predictable, weak plot were by design. At that point, I even enjoyed it a bit.

What a cast, though. Not just all the superstars you see on the left, but also Himesh Patel (Yesterday), Paul Guilfoyle (L.A. Confidential, CSI), Sarah Silverman (Wreck-It Ralph, Monk)... still others with lesser names but who you'd recognize upon sight. I began wondering how Netflix managed to assemble such a cast while writing and developing a thoroughly unimpressive movie. They did something right, though. I mean, *I* watched it. Maybe a lot of others will too. And that could have been the only goal, I suppose. Anyway, I'd give it 1.5 stars.
