Don’t Look Up is an apocalyptic comedy drama film from earlier this month, December 5, 2021 (theatrical release, 24 on Netflix) that revolves around two low-level astronomers going on a world tour, warning humanity of the impending doom that is a comet skyrocketing towards planet Earth.

Because it’s a pretty fresh entry in the Netflix library, we won’t spoil it any further, but you’re more than welcome to check it out yourself as it’s a Netflix exclusive and hence it’s available in all regions around the globe.

The movie stars a number of high-profile actors, including Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Lawrence, and Meryl Streep, supported by the likes of Jonah Hill, Ron Pearlman, Ariana Grande, Cate Blanchett, Rob Morgan, and many others.

Don’t Look Up was directed by award-winning screenwriter, director, and comedian Adam McKay, who’s best known for his work with The Other Guys (2010), Vice (2018), and The Big Short (2015) as well as his comedy partnership with Will Ferrell, together with whom he wrote Anchorman (2004) and Talladega Nights (2006).

The 2-hour and 18-minute long film has already managed to nab 7 awards and get nominated 32 times. As of this article, over 174,000 people rated the movie an average of 7.3 out of 10. And the reactions didn’t stop there as people online started discussing, joking, and memeing the heck out of it.

Some were pointing out how the movie is honestly based on reality with the government ignoring scientists and whatnot. There were select people who would really love to go meet their end at an Ariana Grande concert. Oh, and Jennifer Lawrence’s character dwelling on being charged for free snacks while waiting on the world to end is too darn relatable, according to this tweeter.

Others pointed out the terrible haircuts, hence the name of the movie. Yet others were surprised how many of the shots in the movie include on average three people, and that alone equates to 6-7 Oscars with 35 to 42 nominations, depending on the scene. Now all we need is the same with net worth.
