Obliterated (2023)
Obliterates your brain cells
I had a few good laughs, but for all the wrong reasons.
The knockoff Hemsworth is laughable right from the start, including his temporary tattoos.. There is also a knockoff John Malkovich / Christopher Lloyd who comes across as genuinely unsettling rather than quirky.
Obviously partying plays a big role in the show, but the 'inebriated' acting was so bad, they may have actually been drunk.
It is filled to the brim with overused cliches and tropes (when a guy is drunk apparently only half his shirt stays on so the viewer knows he must be wasted). There is also the customary slow-mo party scene.
It didn't start off great so I thought the action scenes would be better, but one of the opening action scenes looks like it was filmed on a phone.
I actually felt kind of bad for everyone involved in this as I was watching.
