Hey look, another Mike Judge movie! I felt pretty good about this movie. It wasn't hilarious or awesomely excellent or highly critical of American society (like Idiocracy) but it was funny and full of interesting caricatures... so in the end, I felt good about it. If anything, I felt like it all wrapped up a little too cleanly, because while it had a tone of "life is complicated and it sucks" through most of the movie, the ending just made everything neat and tidy with a pretty bow and, in a way, didn't feel true to the rest of the film. Still, I'd recommend it if you're looking for something fun. News
