Having come through, and well and truly left 'The Second Golden Age of Television' behind, it's still completely baffling how wish washy lame and pretty much plotless films and tv series are now getting all the funding.

While this pointless film, with an all star cast and what seems like a very generous budget, doesn't grate upon one like the dismal failures of, say Fargo Season Four, it's pretty much in the same category... which would be akin to 1980's supermarket shelf romantic fiction paperback novels. There's literally nothing original, interesting or even vaguely suspense driven about it.

It has a gentle tone about it, which prevents it from infusing an infuriating feeling of wasting one's time, but it is 99% exactly like 1990s pop-jazz elevator music.

But it is aggravating, because there is obviously even talent and money involved for it to be really good.

Who is writing this crap!?

It reeks of nepotism and young-Millenial-meets Gen-z's elites who seem Yo have zero grit/absolutely no first hand life experience amd are completely unwilling to venture out of the ever closing-in-walls of what's 'socially acceptable'.

The blame for this utter waste of money and time most likely falls on every executive and hands on producers involved, but not off the hook are the writers and directors, and even actors who choose to be involved.

But essentially, the blame is on the financial backers, be gigantic corporations like Amazon, or a mix of highly propaganda oriented media companies.

Sadly, the result is the same - utterly boring story telling.

Let's just hope that this dark age of fiction media story telling doesn't last too much longer. Sigh.
