So what if the movie Don't Look Up
hadn't ended up on Netflix
but played on the big screen and had become an international success like Dr.
Strancelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb, with
both films being quite biting satires? And what if young people got the right
message out of this movie and started to force gouvernment to make changes
to start climate change, to force bit business to change their tactics
regarding enviroment and sustainability? Would it work? Don't
Look Up - Again certainly is a mockumentary has its heart in the
right place, as climate change is most certainly a man-made issue that
can, if not be reversed, at least be reigned in. Now what's a little weird
about this movie is that it's very US-centric - a country not historically
strong on enviromental issues - and is based on a rather not too prominent Hollywood movie - but leaving that aside for the moment,
this is actually
a pretty to-the-point satire that manages to take apart capitalism and
what it has (and hasn't) done for the enviroment in a very convincing way
- and the film's actually pretty entertaining about it, too. That aside,
for its message alone, the film already deserves a watch - it just goes
beyond driving home its point in a rather fun way.
