A biting satire about the absurdity of life in the world today .
I think many reviews about this film are actually way off beam.
1 It’s not a comedy
2 It’s not a disaster movie
3 It’s not a movie to judge the actors
The movie is a complete parody of climate change deniers, anti vaxers , religious and racism, as well as Elon Musk.
It’s set in America but it could just as easily be set in the UK ...
The film to me is best viewed through the eyes of two characters ( President Streep ( Trump) and multi billionaire fanatic (Rylance )
Trump is all over Streep’s character ( basically Boris Johnson in drag ) and Rylance plays Musk brilliantly . Don’t criticise Rylsnces acting... he’s meant to be a crank genius ( a la Bond villains )
The film is a parody about climate change ....Don’t look up really means ignore everything you don’t like ...
Next time you see the British PM give a Press Conference just remember what you saw in this film ... it’s actually a great parade of Brexit Britain and Covid ... do nothing and keep looking at the data
If you don’t wish to be parodied , don’t watch the film because you will turn a blind eye to the message it is portraying
