This is like The Room, but if it wasn't worth watching. Holy hell. I was the only person at the screening I went to - somehow I sat through the entire thing, and it was rancid. I did laugh a lot at it, at the sheer stupidity and shitness of everything, but I can't honestly recommend it to anyone else. It's not so-bad-it's-good, it's just bad. At one point I got so bored I started tapping out a little drumbeat on the water bottle I had with me just to keep myself occupied.

There's a bit where Adam Driver keeps roaring "NO NO NO NO NO" with his face in bandages after a small child shot him point blank in the face, and he has been brought back to life thanks to the new miracle material he discovered that anks to his late wife driving off a bridge, and also because of that he can also stop time. I know that sounds amazing but it really isn't.

Also there's another bit where the mayor of New Rome (which is either a city, or a country, or an entire cinvilation, but is also part of America, or something) has a dream about a big hand grabbing the moon and he wakes up and says something along the lines of "I saw a cloud that was shaped like hand". It was like something someone here would have written and put into a Nemi strip ten years ago.

Also there was this part about a young woman who was a virgin but she wasn't but she actually was due to a deepfake, and before that she sings an awful and creepy song about virginity that was weird and off-putting. Also oh no Adam Driver had sex with her and she was underage, only she isn't, and then it turns out it was a deepfake made by Shia Lebouf who was cosplaying as a zany transphobe. Also this girl was born in Indonesia, and the people who find this out make a face at that like "Only losers are born there!" or something. Shia Lebouf then says something like "Revenge is best served IN A DRESS", and why isn't he in jail, isn't he meant to be in jail for something?

I know this is an absolute fever dream of a post but this is what the movie is like, only I really must stress that despite the fact I was openly laughing at it at points I genuinely cannot say other people should see it. It's actually quite miserable and sad and the theme is "some billionaires are bad but others are good and yes that's fine".

The only good bit was when Dustin Hoffman is killed off in a scene lasting two seconds where a load of masonry falls on him and he goes "AAAAAH" and then that's it.
