A la mierda el 2020

It is supposed to be a comedy but on the contrast I didn't laugh at all. 2020 was in fact a crazy year and we don't expect them to include everything in this film. But it's like the only focus was given on the coronavirus outbreak and the most of it about the US election and Trump administration.

Mostly miss to be honest. Many a YouTuber did a better job at comedic commentary on and during 2020; and in a shorter runtime no less. Lacked the edge that Charlie Brooker brought to Black Mirror.

I wasn't expecting that. Fun, hilarious take on the mockumentary style. Hugh Grant was gold and the bits with the Scientist....🤣! Samuel L. Jackson & Leslie Jones were too funny! Loved the Voice-over narration, as well.

Netflix's new 'play something' algorithm put me on to this and I probably wouldn't have watched it otherwise. I laughed so hard the back of my head hurt. It was like watching a really good edition of SNL's 'Weekend Update' only difference being it's an hour long. Look, it's definitely for an 'Anglo' audience; for Christ's sake Hugh Grant and Tracey Ullman headline. The criticisms leveled in the reviews here are from people who were never going to like it anyway and at times the humor comes at you so fast it is like watching Mel Brooks' 'Blazing Saddles'. The writing is comedy at its very best BY ANYONE'S standard, sometimes in your face and at other times subtle and NO ONE is spared. Others here also panned the 'Borat' movie, tell me that wasn't funny. It is so hard to sift through so much 'content' to find something worth watching , this one goes well beyond one's expectations for a good laugh. The bad reviews, as usual , are from people who don't come at this with an honest open frame of mind, if you like the movie you'll know who they are. This movie is solid eight stars, period.

WHO CARES if some of the material has made the rounds before in different forms? To see a lot of it compiled, tweaked and delivered hilariously by actors who were unwaveringly invested in their roles, was one of the best film experiences I have had this year.

What is baffling and eye-roll-worthy is the fact that some people are STILL in denial that most of what was presented (albeit with added humor) is ALSO TRUE! You see it in the "1" ratings by the brainwashed and braindead (who very much like one of the characters portrayed), can WATCH something happen - yet convince themselves they did not see what they just saw. FACTS mean absolutely NOTHING to these people and their confused, failed, ridiculous excuses get more egregious the less THEY can make sense of them. They think that by doubling and tripling down within their own alternate reality, they'll suddenly be correct and everything which has been proven through data, information, graphs, pictures, figures, indexes, videos, facts will be proven to be wrong. THAT makes this film all the more pertinent and even funnier (and a little scary)!

After causing me to laugh out LOUD for close to the 70 full-minutes of its runtime, Death to 2020 has gained a spot within my top 20 favorite movies of all time.

15/10 - EXCELLENT!
