[QUOTE="pagliaccio_euforico, post: 1068840, member: 73648"] I think McCay has done good work in the past and has done a good job at throwing punches where they need to be thrown. That being said, I thought the Guardian did a good write up about it [URL='https://www.theguardian.com/film/2021/dec/27/look-away-why-star-studded-comet-satire-dont-look-up-is-a-disaster']here[/URL]. Global warming has actual victims that and I think this film essentially reduces it to an attempt to score moral points for dunking on the ignorant. The Guardian had another piece mentioning that the fossil fuels industry was absent from the field, so he isn't even dunking on the people who are at fault. It's just a Hollywood guy dunking on the common man. Global warming has been accepted by scientists since the late 1990s and according to some climate scientists we have 10-20 years to fix things before we are ******. That's going to be extremely hard to do. The time for hard cutting global warming satire was 15 years ago. This film feels like celebrating a try with 5 minutes to go and you are down 85. [/QUOTE]
