I normally have an intense disdain for anybody that adds a review to a movie before it's actually been released. However, I felt compelled to finally violate my own ruling here since Letterboxd doesn't have any sort of way to "comment" on movies rather than just straight-up review them. Anywho...
I'm very displeased that this movie is not staring Bradley Whitford and Adam Sandler as the leads. Wasted opportunity.
I guess that was kind of a review.
This is bad. If only this movie didn't take itself so seriously and was played over the top like a parody...
It's not sharply directed or stylized enough to actually make any kind of lasting impression as a drama. You get moments played for laughs that fall flat and drama that makes you laugh because it's done so poorly..
What's even more telling is seeing Black women being portrayed only in background servant roles or the lead characters Mother... But when you have a majorly white production trying to be "progressive" by writing for Black leads, this is what you get.
