1. Must have cost a Zillion to make. Many stars and the sets et al. Unless much of that was CGI.

2. Love Jerry Seinfeld. But the movie was a bit too much “out there” with so many…. Non-funny side stories.

3. Did not appreciate some of the Dark humor. Esp the references to JFK assasination and others. Too soon….

4. Yet another reason why Netflix is always increasing fees. Gotta pay the piper for these productions.

Lots of famous people and character actors that you’ll recognize. Some good satire and a few chuckles, but if you’re looking for belly laughs, you won’t find them here. At least it’s only 90 minutes long! I’d give it a “C”.

On a completely different Netflix note, if you’re looking for a disturbing true story, check out Baby Reindeer.

I watched it last night for the first time. I might give it a little better grade (C+)...but I was going into with having the Airplane seed planted as the comparison. Not even the same hemisphere. Would still recommend it though

Started last night, was funny but not hilarious.

For me best to watch in increments of 20 minutes or so

We enjoyed it. Laughed a lot! Totally silly, but a lot of fun.

I found it very juvenile. Would be funny on mushrooms.

There were some funny scenes and a lot of named people in it but all in all it was a dumb movie that would never succeed in the theaters.

I didn't love the mocking of the Jan 6 stuff simply because I'd have like to not be reminded of politics. But the JFK thing, too soon? It was over 60 years ago and there was a Seinfeld episode also with this as the subject.
