Disaster ComedyDon’t Look UpFeels Way Too Real

The star - dot new film Do n’t see Up has a hazardous , entirely improbable premiss . Somethingtotally out of the cathode-ray oscilloscope of reality . A plot that would never , ever , in a million years hap . It ’s about a human beings where scientists have proof something awful is come about … and no one believes them . Pfft . Yeah , like that could happen .

Written and directed by Adam McKay , who made The Big Short , Anchorman , Step Brothers , and more , Do n’t Look Up stars Oscar - winner Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence as two scientists who know alarge comet is going to hit Earth . The trick is getting the great unwashed to take them seriously despite overwhelming proof . The film also features Jonah Hill , Mark Rylance , Timothée Chalamet , Tyler Perry , Ariana Grande , Scott Mescudi , Himesh Patel , Melanie Lynskey , Michael Chiklis , Ron Perlman , Cate Blanchett , Meryl Streep , and more . Yes , more . Here ’s a new lengthy cartridge clip that will give you an idea of what to wait .

Production on thefilm began latterly last yearand so it seems pretty clear this idea of ignoring science and peril was mostly inspire by the mod world and the covid-19 pandemic . Even if it was write and conceived before that though , it remains to be figure whether the absurdist , political commentary will still play as entertaining and suspicious considering we ’re inhabit it every exclusive day . Going by this time though , it seems like it will . Hill and Streep ’s over - the - top goofiness juxtaposed with Lawrence and DiCaprio ’s intensity and seriousness work well . If the rest of the plastic film nails that character of balance , Netflix might have something peculiar .

President Meryl Streep? Yes, okay.
