Downsizing (2017)

Downsizing: Directed by Alexander Payne. With Matt Damon, Christoph Waltz, Hong Chau, Kristen Wiig. A social satire in which a man realizes he would have a better life if he were to shrink himself to five inches tall, allowing him to live in wealth and splendor.

“After seeing the trailer and prior to that not knowing a thing about this movie, I took the wife last night. I loved the concept and saw many funny people (Kristin Wiig, Jason Sudeikis, among others) in the trailer and thought it would be fun. While I wouldnu0026#39;t say it was a bad movie, it was SLOW and really didnu0026#39;t provide many laughs. Seemed to be another movie trying to push down an agenda regarding global warming and conservation rather than being a fun escape for 2 hours. If you like the actors, you might like the movie, but if youu0026#39;re expecting something with a comedic slant, Iu0026#39;d say youu0026#39;ll be disappointed.”
