      I haven’t not heard of this movie, but I didn’t know it was in theaters and I have no idea what it’s about or if it’s worth the price of a ticket.

      So whatever they put into marketing, the result is “vaguely aware a movie exists.”

        I saw adds for this. Nothing about it looked remotely original and sure as shit not dealing with going to the theater for a Chris Hemsworth product.

    Sure, there seems to be way more than enough thrillers and horror movies, what is SORELY missing is DECENT BIG BUDGET COMEDY MOVIES, but they don’t seem to make them anymore.

        Yeah I though it was decent, it exceeded my expectations at least, but it’s a reboot. I guess comedy movies just don’t rake in enough money.

        I really wanted to like it, but once you’ve seen the bit with the little girl [which was in the trailer] it goes downhill fast.

        Gave up on it pretty quick.

    Why?

    Streaming is how movies are consumed now. Don’t fight it, lean into it.

    Also what is the logic of releasing a thriller on Valentine’s Day Weekend.
