It was pretty bad overall.

parts that, as an IT person, would make my eye twitch.


Almost anything he wanted to do technology related was a right click drop down menu or just typing general commands in a search bar. It was pretty rough.

The entire movie was filled with amazon. One of the main characters is an amazon driver. The whole movie is saved by a same day amazon delivery.

Watching multiple ad breaks to watch a giant amazon ad was pretty wild experience.

Most of the movie is watched through a screen from Ice Cube's office.

Would not recommend.

Why has this movie been astroturfed so hard? Amazon has secretly done a great job of advertising this.

Some of the gifs that are emerging on twitter from this movie are hard to believe, but apparently they are real

Doesn't that put him in two of such ratings? If I remember correctly, when Anaconda was released it was destroyed as one of the worst movies ever made.

Anaconda has a 41% on RT, which is in another galaxy from a sub-10%

The recaps on rotten tomatoes are hilarious. The reviewers sound genuinely angry they had to watch it.

I finished it at lunch today. It is probably the 2nd worst movie I have ever seen. M. Night Shamalamadingdong’s Lady In The Water will always be my least favorite.
