Interesting story, but definitely could've been structured and paced better. Went in for Ramin Bahrani, but stayed for the story.

Of all the docs and shows that have come out on this topic, this definitely was the best of the lot.
Glad they featured some of the true legends of the reddit community, that I had only interacted with on the interwebs.
As a fellow ape who made money on this, I genuinely feel bad for the few who are still holding and hoping to get on that rocket to the moon. I hope it happens for them soon.

Even a fun performance from Rita Moreno couldn't salvage this boring and lackluster 'horror comedy' that had very few comedic elements that actually worked and was filled generic horror tropes that get borderline annoying at times.

Not great, but not bad either, just wasn't engaging enough.
Have seen quite a few films where the premise is about a group of friends trying to get to a party/prom etc. just felt like writer-director Reggie Yates didn't make it as funny or engaging as some of the other films in this sub-genre.

What a waste of an amazing cast. Starts off pleasantly well, then slowly turns into a dull and boring affair, and ends up being tonally all over the place.
A 2hr long excuse of a movie made solely so that the cast and crew could vacation in Italy. Sadly don't see any other reason why this got made.
