This movie was so funny. Let’s start there. All the jokes landed. The acting was amazing. The cinematography was great. The story could be interpreted in a bunch of ways or just as the story it’s trying to tell. It’s great. I love the background hints at the climate crisis, American politics, covid, and how we would handle a disaster. This whole movie is a depressing little bit too real at times satire about the government in general. Over the course of the movie, you can really see whos supposed to be who. I think movies like this have a dark humor to them but also make you think about the future of the world/ country as a whole and accept the impending doom that seems to be coming at us lowkey fast. Meh whatever YOLO right. The acting was amazing...duh. They had some of the biggest in the industry acting ofc it’s going to be good. Now Timothee chalamet has always been a great actor and one of my favorite things from him is the death of a salesman monologue he does in miss stevens. He’s an amazing actor despite being relatively new to the industry. That being said this movie didn’t seem to take that much acting for him. I heard that most of the lines were improvised which makes sense bc the way he acts in the movie is pretty much how he is in real life. J law did an amazing job per usual and the whole movie just felt so natural. Leo did an incredible job. His character was nothing like him in real life and it just felt like he was being 100% himself. It’s amazing how good he is at acting. The cinematography was a lot of fun. Serious when needed but comical when not. An example is when they were at the shrimp restaurant and Lawrence says the world is ending and the world isn’t doing anything about it and it immediately cuts to the restaurant being destroyed by riots. One of those little chuckle moments you know. There’s so much fun in the movie surrounded by the serious tone. It’s almost covering up what we should be feeling with comedy while still making the audience think. I really enjoyed this movie and I would recommend it to anyone really. I give this movie an 8/10.
