Not bad but was obviously trying to hard to be funny


Kate McKinnon obviously read the script and decided she had to take it to 11 to make it work. She's beyond over-the-top in this. There are a lot of jokes, and 90% don't land, but I did laugh a few times. Mila is mesmerizing and her attempts at humor came across a lot better - more subtle, not in your face. It had potential, and a decent enough rental.

By the way, it had a lot more violence than I was expecting. I was pleasantly surprised by this.
