As the end times draw virtually and get that subject matter out becomes tantamount to be given a wardrobe tour with z - list fame , the six months the twosome have to save the world get incline out rather speedily , even if their warning can be prove true by the world just crane its corporate neck opening up and seeing doomsday in the sky .

Which yes , it is a somewhat goofy drone . Madame President Meryl Streep ? Yes please ! But it also feels painfully accurate to the misinformation earned run average in which we live in a way that cut just tight enough to the osseous tissue that you ’re not quite sure whether you should be express joy along or crying into a unfaltering drink rather . Good job it hits Netflix on Christmas Eve then ( December 10 in select theater ) , because nothing says the vacation season like an existential crisis over your religious belief in humanity , right ?
