‘Don’t Look Up’ is a satirical comedy that has The fil

The film became the best outcome of 2021. It stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Meryl Streep, Jennifer Lawrence, Cate Blanchett, Jonah Hill, Timothée Chalamet and Mark Rylance. The actors played the most absurd aspects of modern society, where people deny the obvious problems that may affect the future of all mankind.

The plot of the movie:

Astronaut scientists, played by Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence, learned that six months after the Earth would be destroyed by a giant meteorite and decided to warn humanity about it. To do this, they went on a press tour, but instead of understanding and adequate reaction, they only encountered ridicule and distrust of people seeong what the world of politics really was.

‘Don’t Look Up’ avoids the tearful moralizing that filmmakers sometimes indulge in. The film chooses a different path – it ruthlessly ironizes American society, but, at the same time, it touches the whole world and reaches out to each of us.

The uneven intonation of the film mirrors the mood of the characters well – the whole film is running in circles and desperately trying to prove something to someone, either falling into painful apathy, or losing their way due to fallen popularity, they still come to humility with the world and themselves in the end. yourself. The lyrical, almost religious finale is strongly knocked out of everything that was in the picture before, and, at the same time, it feels the only correct one… for this particular film, and, apparently, for humanity in general.

The film is wonderful, I advise everyone to see it. My rating is 9/10.
