To be honest, I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but, since it was starring Margot Robbie, I thought I might as well check it out. It is definitely one of the more obscure movies Robbie has made since she got her breakthrough about 10 years ago and, well, it’s not surprising that this movie got completely unnoticed. Seriously, pretty much nothing with the damned thing worked and it is probably the weakest movie I have seen so far starring Margot Robbie. For starters, they went for some fancy heightened look but it looked so fake and, above all, really underwhelming. However, it was not even the worst issue with this movie. Indeed, even more problematic was the story. Like the visuals, they tried to go for something sophisticated but it was mostly pretentious and never really entertaining. Obviously, to make it look smarter than it actually was, they scrambled the whole thing but it seriously backfired though. At the end of the day, I’m not sure if the damned thing really made any sense at all. Concerning Mike Myers, the guy doesn’t do many movies nowadays and you wonder why he then picked such an obscure feature which happened to be quite terrible on top of that. By the way, while it was borderline impossible to follow what the hell was going on for most of the duration, it was actually so predictable that Myers was playing a dual-role. There was obviously a twist ending which was supposed to explain everything but I can’t say it was really satisfying. It was also most the random pointless use of twins I have probably ever seen. Seriously, did it have any impact on what happened before? Anyway, to conclude, even though Margot Robbie did look lovely as usual, the damned thing was a waste of time and you should probably avoid it.
