It wasn't terrible, but the satire should have been much subtler. The cast of all A-listers came across as self-indulgent and annoying to me as well.

- thrdbndndn 3y agoI enjoyed the film overall, but I agree that the satire was quite heavy-handed, particularly with Jonah Hill's character. I understand that it was intended to be over-the-top, but it was too much for me.
- wharvle 3y agoYeah, the folks in my group who watched it had such a negative reaction I didn’t bother with it. But as I recall the complaint wasn’t that it was depressing, but that it was a movie length “do you get it? Do you get the bit? We better do it harder just to be sure.”
