Rich Flu

Laura Palmer (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) is a hard charging executive and battling a divorce. She goes to meet her rich boss in Alaska where he appoints her the head of a non-profit subdivision. First, the Pope dies. More of the world's uber-rich die. There is some sort of viral disease which is killing the richest of the rich. Laura is surprised when her boss revalues her shares to be worth $900 million as the rich try to destroy their net worth.

This is a dumb high concept premise. It makes no sense, but I do try to go along with it. They do need to make the movie logic make sense around this stupid premise. It wouldn't be that hard to suppress one's net worth. One could simply donate it to the government. That's why I didn't get not going into quarantine. I do get the need to go to her daughter. So I let that go. Once the neighbors come for her, she should leave by herself. How could she put her daughter in danger? That's not reasonable. For the sake of the movie, she should go on the road alone.

Obviously, this is meant to be the reverse of the normal situation. I'm willing to let a lot of this go, but only up to a point. I do like the adventure thrills and the complicated Laura Palmer. I just don't like the non-sense in response to the non-sense premise.

Hope they didn't spend more than 100 dollars to make this movie because that's about what it looks like. The writing is laughably bad, the acting feels phoned in, and the pacing is a complete disaster. Nothing good to say about it-no redeeming qualities, no interesting ideas, just a frustrating waste of time.

It honestly feels like a 13-year-old scribbled down a half-baked script in an hour, and the next day, someone decided, "Yep, let's film this." The dialogue is cringeworthy, the plot makes no sense, and whatever message they were trying to deliver gets lost in the sheer absurdity of it all.

I want my time back. Avoid this movie at all costs.

While nonsensical on many levels, I thought the premise of the film was interesting. I was fascinated to see how the world would 'connect the dots' of what was happening. But we're not witness to very much along those lines.

Instead, we're taken from 'normal world' to 'crazy world' in the flash of an eye. I realized after watching this movie, that the film makers wanted to sell their political viewpoint, but it didn't work for me.

Lastly, many films that are apocalyptical like this one, tend to use the same plot device of the protagonists needing to escape where they live, for safer ground far away, and the story revolves around their journey trying to get there. I found the journey to be boring, and I wasn't impressed once I had arrived. My rating = 5.

The acting seems SO fake, and the dialogue and sound feels like very poor dubbing. This movie could have been good if someone else made it. But the very fake acting and unlikeable characters destroys everything that could have been good with this movie. I have seen this in other movies too lately. What are they doing? Recording ALL dialogue after the movie is finished? Because most of the actors can't speak proper English? In that case it would have been so much better with original language and subtitles (although I hate subtitles...). I gave this 3 stars because they made me watch it cause of the storyline. But really, don't waste your time on earth watching this garbage.

One of the most stupid movies I ever seen in my life, it's so disappointing that I even decided to write it here to protect people from watching it. The main hero is such a narcissistic and stupid b**** that all the movie you're getting angry fromall of her actions and stupidity, she knows she does harm to her family but pretends that she doesn't. The whole movie is so irrational and illogical that every second you ask yourself "can it be even worse?" and yu get it! Again and again! These teeth are another story........During the whole movie I didn't have any feelings or emotions about any of it's characters....... I just want my time back.
