It sucks! It doesn't JUST suck, it's actually kinda bad and I LOVE Kevin Smith! Like I get legit excited to see his stuff but Im super disappointed - do without spoilers, the entire first act is essentially talking about sneaking into an theatre, and idk if he's trying to explain a very simple concept to people born after 2000, or it's just 'Chuffa' ( 1. See Kevin I am a fan! I remember your Bruce Willis story when you directed him in Cop Out and 2. Shout out to Bruce Willis, thank you for the years and years of entertainment) - but take that in addition to flagrant attempts at manipulation of human nostalgia (which has become a way to leaned upon crutch after it hit big with Stranger Things) and it comes across as very desperate and simplistic in a very, almost offensive way - and oddly enough it was billed as" Kevins most personal film to date " (well it sure has enough of his friends in it ffs) (who can't act I might add, but it isn't endearing) but yet it's not autobiographical either soooo.... And yes I spoke directly to Kevin earlier cause I know he's gonna read this, I KNOW this because having read the day one reviews here on imdb, I can see that several of them are made from, let's say... 'inside the Smith camp' if u get my drift - and again listen I love the guy and have enormous respect - I WAS 16 in 86 so this has extra meaning to me and I should be susceptible to the nostalgia draw - but it's not enough and I think he knows it - I'm sorry, I expected better from such a genius.
