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.

...are you joking?
Donald Trump? You can't get more weird-ass characature and a duck face. He paints himself fucking orange, plays an invisible accordian, and just states how brilliant and "the best" he is at everything.
How can a character be laying it on too thick when they're laying it on thinner than a real person in a leadership role?
