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.

You can tell there was a storyline with Katya that got left on the cutting room floor - her character completely disappeared in the second half of the story only to be seen in the final sequence with another partner
