RE: DON'T LOOK UP movie review - about affliction and waiting carelessly

in Netflix & Streaming3 years ago

I thoroughly enjoyed this film and also, sadly, felt as though it was a rather accurate description of the idiocy of the world today. Because of social media, people are too self-absorbed to care about anything other than increasing their number of followers.

Politicians are too worried about the polls to actually tackle the problems that they are hired to deal with.

People discredit scientists that go against political narratives and a lot of really powerful people and companies control what is going on in life for the regular man.

The news isn't interested in reporting the truth until it is too late and they have no choice.

I feel as though Don't Look Up pretty accurately discussed a lot of these issues and this is probably why a lot of professional reviewers lambasted it because it was making fun of their industry and the people who work in it.

Good write up!
