For our second review this week, Josh Parham, Dan Bayer & Ema Sasic joined me to discuss the newest film from Academy Award-winner Adam McKay. “Don’t Look Up” contains the largest ensemble of big Hollywood name actors this year, with Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Lawrence, Rob Morgan, Jonah Hill, Mark Rylance, Tyler Perry, Timothée Chalamet, Ron Perlman, Ariana Grande, Scott Mescudi, Cate Blanchett & Meryl Streep. Currently streaming on Netflix, the film tells the satirical story of a comet on an impending collision course with earth and the scientists trying to warn humanity of their upcoming annihilation. What did we think of the performances, the writing, the comedy, the editing, and the score? We discuss all of these points, including the film’s mixed reception and its Oscar potential, in our SPOILER-FILLED review down below. Enjoy!
