Wth did I just watch?

Rating: 4/10 (12 September 2019)

The walkaway feeling after watching this movie is one of bewilderment. I hope that is what they were going for cause they nailed it. Filled with more twists turns and often irrelevant detours than Snake river one thing you can say for sure is you never know what you're gonna get next. Much to it's credit if the movie was based solely on competency of filmmaking then it would score highly. Every scene is well shot and timing is done well. That's the start and end of the praise for the most part though as it's more like nearly 3 hours of skit shows that just happen to feature the same core cast in many scenes.
The hot takes on hollywood through the lens of an aging actor play like Bojack Horseman but without the humour, and with much less depth. Yes people that worry about becoming has-beens will tend to be insecure, we get it. The movie loosely touches on the counter culture that sprung up in protest to the Vietnam war but the "hippies" are all just a right wing caricature of what they think hippies are, rather than based it real life. People that advocate for peace generally aren't prone to violence. Almost as a saving grace what little violence in the movie is so over the top that one can easily ignore it as comical, with one scene which is just brutal.
At the end of the day though the move has said nothing, we as an audience has learnt nothing, and all the people are bad. There is no one at the end to support and as I said at the start, what was this even all about? If I lived in a trailer park and had hard opinions on them libtards I might have enjoyed the ending a bit more, but as it stands - bewilderment.
