While they've given the narrator some solid jokes, it's really a cheap shortcut to move things along. I just wonder if it was a way to shorten the movie and reduce the budget (the set decoration is very extensive for a comedy).

"You think Einstein ever went around thinking everyone was dumb shits?" is a pretty good observation. I wonder what it would be like living in our society if you were really, really, really smart. Like insanely smart. It's bad enough being only kinda smart.

The bullet coming out of the Fox News logo is nice. Gotta appreciate the fuck you from Judge there (movie is produced by Fox).

Weird that Fox News has two non-blonde female reporters.

Beef Supreme is a pretty bad ass name. If someone paid me $200,000 to do it I'd legally change my name to Beef Supreme.

I haven't seen enough of him to really have an opinion, but I think it's more of a problem with the character being badly conceived and written. No good reason for him to be involved after his first scene.

This third act is absolutely rushed.

It's seldom you say a movie would be better longer, but they really could have used an extra 10 minutes to flesh out some things here and there.

Crocs being part of the standard uniform is a nice touch.

This movie is littered with Bottle Rocket alumni.

Honestly, Maya Rudolph may have one of the top 5 racks I've ever seen. Should have paid more attention before.

Bonus points if you recognize this as the "O-face" guy from Office Space.

Beef Supreme's "are you not entertained?" looks are awesome.

Camacho really is convincing as the third-smartest person in the world.

Whew. I was afraid we were going to get out of here without another usage of "fags".

Sad how some of these starts-and-stripes design clothes are available for purchase now.

That painting gets Luke Wilson's facial proportions right at least.

This movie is absolutely Exhibit A if you were arguing "Maya Rudolph is hot as hell". (I'm not disagreeing with that opinion, just saying this movie should be Exhibit A.)

I hate to say you can almost excuse it given the subject matter, but it still seems like there was a better way to make the point about how dumb everyone is.DSafetyGuy wrote: ↑Thu Jul 02, 2020 9:37 pm Whew. I was afraid we were going to get out of here without another usage of "fags".

All in all, a pretty good way to get into the July 4th, 'Murica mood. Next week, down with the commies.
