I’m actually really surprised at the poor rating that this movie got- I think that it is an extremely relevant movie especially now with climate change and the current pandemic. After finishing the movie I had to remind myself that it wasn’t real life because it felt so real. The social media aspect was scarily accurate- and the apathetic or greedy behaviour of officials was really some fantastic satire, though the president was also scarily reminiscent of a certain…recent president.
Although it was comedic, it was terrifyingly close to our current reality and I can’t help but feel like it deserves more appreciation than it got. Definitely worth watching…it really makes you reflect especially in these apocalyptic-feeling times.
