I am concerned the the cringe factor will be unbearable. That's actually why I'm seeing it with people in theaters because if I was watching this alone on streaming I'm sure I'd have to go outside and live in the woods for a week before I would be ready to see another human being. The trailer made me so uncomfortable I had to look away. I imagine the theater experience will be brutal and am a bit surprised they thought people would be willing to subject themselves to it. Good luck if you end up going to see it. I know I'll definitely need it.

    LOL...
    TBH I'm pretty well disabled at this point, so when I do watch movies (usually via either YT or yarr, matey), I'm always taking ~15-20min breaks so I can collect my energy, plus think about what I just saw. This lets me wade through a lot of stuff which would otherwise be just too much for me, glued to my seat.

    I think the last actual theatre film I saw was "Lion," about an Indian boy who got separated from his family, was later adopted by a Canadian couple, and eventually tracked down his birth family back in India. It was a bit stressful and emotional, but not remotely as grueling as the Fielder film, it seems.

    At the same time, I feel like in a world dominated by modern supervillains billionaires, it will be an important film to watch for many people who seek to understand malignant narcissism and all that stuff.
