Those messages came through to a degree (good write up by the way) but to my mind they didn't go far enough. Then the comedy was so light touch too.

It all just felt like a first draft of something that might have been hilarious, entertaining and thought provoking. But didn't land any of those things well. So I thought, couldn't it have picked one of the 3 and done then well?

When the credits rolled I just said 'k'. Because I didn't really take anything away from it. Even without the hype for months, my expectation was built more by the cast and director. So I was just disappointed. I wasn't even entertained.

Oh, I'm totally with you there, there were about 2 or 3 jokes that I enjoyed, and every thing else was kinda bland. I think I was overhyped.
