About this deal
There are elements of a good movie here, and moments when the film works, but they are buried in an uneven package.

This isn’t the only moment plagued by choppy editing, and Linus Sandgren’s cinematography isn’t as impressive as we have come to expect from him. DiCaprio keeps the film grounded, including in a subplot showing the strain that his newfound status as a media darling is putting on his relationship with his wife June (Melanie Lynsky).

When a man is beaten to death in a park in broad daylight, and the footage is caught on camera, the bystanders undergo major scrutiny as to why they did not intervene. Well, President Orlean ( Meryl Streep) – once seen in a picture of her hugging Bill Clinton – is barking mad, and more interested in having a cigarette than doing any real work. But with its depictions of a society obsessed with image, mobile phones and where people will believe anything despite clear evidence to the contrary.
What we are left with is a sprawling satire with all the subtlety of a sledgehammer, as McKay takes aim at the inaction of inept government officials to stop a comet from destroying life as we know it and the public’s disinterested response to impending doom, turning it into a matter of memes and political partisanship. McKay’s righteous indignation is felt throughout, and Don’t Look Up does build to a surprisingly sombre ending that has somewhat of an emotional impact, partially thanks to Nicholas Brittell’s soaring musical score, which is one of the film’s best elements. Brilliantly showing how social media and the celebrity-obsessed public just don’t know or don’t care about serious matters the film is very funny, very frustrating to view and painfully true in so many areas. Plot: Two low-level astronomers must go on a giant media tour to warn mankind of an approaching comet that will destroy planet Earth. Turning off the personalised advertising setting won’t stop you from seeing Etsy ads, but it may make the ads you see less relevant or more repetitive.
In Don’t Look Up, while the scientists are trying to get the facts out there about what’s trying to happen – and how everyone’s lives are in danger, the bigwigs are more interested in finding a way to turn it into a way to make rich people even richer.

An entertaining satire from director Adam McKay that cleverly examines the state and ridiculousness of modern political ideologies, media and celebrities all wrapped up in a disaster/apocalyptic narrative.

But this bit of commentary would be more effective if Lawrence’s character wasn’t written in a way that makes her come across as, well, hysterical and overly emotional. In 1928, the Hungarian director Bela Olt decides to shoot Matya's story with the lead gypsy actress Lila Kis. The US administration is portrayed as a Trumpian band of self serving fools but as dangerous to the very future of humanity. I put it up there with "Wag the Dog", "The Castle", "L'Amour" and "The Road" as movies that should be revered.years later (so, since it starts in the year 2021, the year will now be 24761), it finds a habitable planet and sends the pods to touch down, with a 58% success rate. All Quiet On The Western Front won Best Film and being filmed in German adds further realism to a film that depicts war so vividly. Adam McKay is a director who has gone from making off the wall comedies like Anchorman, Talladega Nights and Step Brothers to Oscar-winning prestige pictures like the financial satire The Big Short (which was genuinely very good) and the Dick Cheney biopic Vice (which was uneven but still mostly enjoyable). There are scenes that feel more like extended Saturday Night Live skits, and McKay’s directing and writing here is hit or miss (a running gag about free snacks gets stale fast).
