        I did, I was openly laughing about how the plot contradicted itself and all the Amazon product placement.

          It’s being advertised on Prime Video as the #2 top watched movie right now. I just laughed lol they’re rankings are a total joke

            Maybe it is the second most watched movie…you’re all here talking about it, after all.

          That’s how long my wife and I made it into “A Family Affair” with Zach Effron and Nicole Kidman. Gave it a try but holy cow was it bad. And we typically don’t turn off movies or leave shows.

      Surely it can’t be worse than Borderlands to name a recent piece of rubbish I saw, currently sat at 10% on rotten tomatoes

        There is apparently an action scene in which ice cube needs a thumb drive, so orders one via Amazon drone delivery. The drone goes down in all the chaos, and our characters have to barter with the homeless man who found the downed drone by offering him Amazon gift cards. The man is a conspiracy nut who thinks the government is tracking him, but a $1000 Amazon gift cards convinces him to risk his life for the characters.

        So yes, it is worse than Borderlands.

          I’ve seen the thumbdrive/buying from Amazon sequence on Instagram. I’m going to have to watch the full scene now for myself on Prime.

          So glad I didn’t watch this, I was fairly interested from the trailer.

          Is it at least entertaining from a bad movie perspective? Or is it the worst of all worlds and also consistently boring?

          If it’s a ridiculous trainwreck I might see if I can find a source for bad movie night

        Borderlands is Oscar material compared to this thing. I watched it thinking it couldn’t be that bad and it was worse than I thought an amateur movie could be.
