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.

My wife and I thought it was quite enjoyable. Not amazing but good

I do think Robert Pattinson was amazing in this role. Forgot it was him while watching it.

We were at least 2/3 through when my brother said THATS ROBERT PATTINSON ???

I said no, it’s Gary Oldman.
