Watchable. Treasure hunt and politics ?

Rating: 4/10 (12 June 2020)

This is what happens when Tommy Wiseau and Spike Lee decide to remake the Goonies. Whilst I did manage to make the end despite falling asleep before the halfway point (something the director also seems to have done) I cant say it's the best use of 2 hours 35 minutes which is far more time than they seem to put in writing producing directing and editing this film. The high points of the film came from laughing at the VC fighters death collapse on Stormin Norman (the almost mythical 1 eyed Willy of the film) followed by, I dont know how many rolls upon being pushed off the body by the character Paul and also Paul's snake bite ordeal where the rubber snake seems to have been looted from the Chuckle Brothers forgotten prop box. Seems the whole film was rushed to in to being take advantage of the growing global social upheaval regarding the BLM momentum in the hope of maximizing viewing numbers which as a point of motivation for release is a tragedy in its self as no matter how many news clips and quotes used the end result here is pretty poor
All in all it has the ability to keep you watching but that time may be more productively spent playing farming simulator or just watch the original Goonies
