However, being the #1 movie on Netflix does not mean that you should be able to appreciate it. For example, right now, the title is being criticized by critics. The New York TimesAssimilation “fumblecore.”

Rotten Tomatoes has a terrible 25% rating from critics at the moment.

It’s the kind of movie that gives you on-screen gags like a football team being so bad, the kicker sends one particularly bad kick sailing right into the posterior of one of the players. Who collapses and yells? “Ahh, my butthole!”
