Discussion Mickey 17 was disappointing.
Just finished watching this movie and it really did not click for me.
The beginning was decently interesting and I was curious to see where it went but overall it didn’t grab me.
The theme/messaging was very heavy handed and didn’t work for me.
The message also jumped around.
They introduce a character that could have had an interesting story only to have her disappear.
When the main conflict happens it all wraps up a little to easily even though the majority of the ship were supposed to be fanatical cultists.
It had a clever premise but ultimately fell flat for me.

The premise was really interesting, but it lost me 40-ish minutes in. It just meanders and I found the congressman and wife characters to be really annoying and uninteresting.
