There is a brief contrived interaction within the first quarter of the movie that is a blatant catalyst for the rest of the movie to happen. Key word - contrived. It's obvious. So based on the reviews, I'm noticing from that scene who will probably enjoy this movie or want two hours of their life back. If you nerd out on superficial characters with issues doing bizarre things in a slow movie and feel this must have some deeper meaning that you haven't seen a thousand times before, then you'll like it. If you're a realist who quickly thinks about there being a ton of series on streaming services that have better 45 minute episodes than this entire film, then you will hate this movie.
