I watched about the first 10 minutes, had to shut it off. Are they using a fish eye lens in the half the scenes? It's sure looks like it.

Watched it last night. The cast is great. It's just... off somehow. It's not bad. But its not great either. It gets too convoluted with all its twists and turns. It could have been great. It just misses. 5/10.

Yep. It meandered around and had no real final destination.

It didn't seem like there was any intended plot within the first 20 minutes or so. I tried twice to watch it. Just couldn't even get past that much.

But seriously... what the fuck is with that fish eye lens? It's awful.

I'm with the consensus opinion here, great cast, meandering plot. Just felt like there was no rhyme or reason for anything, and then at the end there was a moral of the story about the corruption of the auto industry or whatever. Just felt like a movie that was still in the planning story board stage that someone just decided fuck it let's make this even though we're not done with the plot

Brendan Fraser's weight gain is apparently due to him about to play a 600 pound fat man . . . maybe.

Is Brendan Fraser OK? 'Mummy' star is unrecognizable as he puts on weight

Darren Aronofsky will direct Fraser in ‘The Whale’, an adaptation of Samuel D Hunter’s play about a morbidly obese recluse

Part of me says "wow what dedication to his craft" and the other part says "so he gets paid to eat as much Cheesecske Factory cheesecakes and ice-cream sundaes as he can? Fuck".

Getting type 2 diabetes for a role is actually pretty fucking hardcore.

Also, I enjoyed this movie. Not a masterpiece by any means, but it was amusing enough for a couple hours.

oof, finally got around to watching this (its on HBO Max) and man... what a boring ass movie. such a waste of a great cast and time period. Everyone is good, although it feels like a stage play vs reality/movie.

The cast still though is absolutely insane - Don Cheadle, fat Brendan Fraser, Benicio Del Toro (speaking in his normal voice? I didnt even know thats what he sounds like!!), David Harbour, Jon Hamm, fucking Ray Liotta, and a couple surprise pop ins that are cool.

still so goddamn boring and as people said above, pretty much no real story. Ugh, what a shame of a waste of money and time and cast. As usual with most new stuff there is a lot of cringe 2021 politics thrown into it that makes zero sense considering the time period.
