Same. I tried to work out why it was such a colossal bum note. It gave me that same feeling of watching an extended SNL sketch where it’s irritating because you don’t get the self-referential stuff because you’re not a regular viewer, while the ‘obviously funny’ bits just weren’t sharp enough to carry the film alone. Shame.

Saw Don’t Look Up, can only add to the comments that it’s flabby and overly long. Which, with an incredible cast list (not always a reliable metric but 5 Oscar winners!) and The Big Short and Vice part of the DNA, is a significant achievement in itself.
