The movie was in dire need of better editing - RGA 20:43:14 12/28/21 (5)

That appears to be the bane of the industry. Hey, at least it clocked under 3 hours... nt - tinear 13:14:52 12/29/21 (1)

I don't think this was as much of a film about the reticence of some to accept Global warming as fact as - Road Warrior 10:30:04 12/28/21 (7)

Comedy is "heavy-handed." Or else, it's light humor. And I think it is - tinear 13:17:35 12/29/21 (5)

Some of the least heavy handed content occurred at the end, around the dinner table, possibly my favorite part - Road Warrior 16:06:04 12/29/21 (3)

Well, no matter one's opinions---- it's sure gotten more excitement - tinear 07:49:54 12/31/21 (2)
