Instead, none of its philosophical takes ever really go anywhere and it lacks a proper commentary. In this case, less is more. 

    That said, if you go into the film just looking for a fun time, you won’t be disappointed.

This meant none of the characters had much time to shine, leaving you uncaring when any of them died (and plenty of them did). It also resulted in lacklustre performances from some serious names, particularly…
