You know that one friend you have who does good deeds but posts CONSTANTLY posts pictures about how majestic their good deeds are?
Imagine that, times a billion.
Long, tedious interviews where "volunteers" talk incessantly about themselves, how important they are, and how underpublicized their self-described heroics are to the media.
After an hour I thought it was actually a comical parody of a documentary like "Best In Show" or "Waiting For Guffman".
Unfortunately, I was wrong.
I don't know if the producer, and no coincidence the "star", of this film is running for office or trying to buy a Nobel Peace Prize or what but this film is cautionary tale about confusing narcissism with charity.

I loved this iconic show for multiple decades and was thrilled to hear it was coming back.
Disappointingly, the writers have gotten lazy and only produce stories vilifying anyone that doesn't worship identity politics, victimhood, and blue state policies.
Such a lost opportunity to produce centrist, unifying content.

I LOVE post-apocalyptic stories and think Benjamin Bratt is an underutilized talent.
That being said DMZ is just poorly done.
Cliché characters, lazy storytelling, and awkwardly forced political messaging (yes, healthcare should be more available. We get it.) crammed into 4 hours that go nowhere and does it slowly.
