Many contemporary sci-fi flicks today are poorly written, as you can see with this example. Of note is the distinct lack of originality or meaningful uniqueness to story lines and script, which is characteristic of many of today's films no matter what genre. It seems fashionable now to kill off the main protagonist (or near central figure) while either elevating or replacing it entirely with the antagonist. For example you see this method in the first Mission Impossible remake. They kill off the good guy while simultaneously making him appear to be the bad guy.

I used to go to the movies (theaters), quite often once per week, but there's nothing of value to see anymore because of how woke, worthless, and low quality films are made today. Not to mention how expensive ticket prices and snacks have become. Notice how quickly many movies at the theater quickly go straight to streaming - nobody watches them anymore. I still go to the flicks about once or twice a year, but most movies I like to say I'll wait for them to come out on Netflix, then - Not Rent Them. 😅😂🤣

I wanted to like it….

Have you seen Inception? That’s a good one.

I liked it. The girl that played Smith did a good job, that's how an actual Dr Smith would probably be. The parents were forgettable af. Nothing like the actual show. They're divorced, there bitter. He's not Dr Robinson as much as he's some dumb glowie leg breaker with PTSD. A demented ape and unrelatable. She's got big time dude energy, gross and unrelatable , nothing to see with either of them. I'm guessing it's some woke commie attack on the family. I've seen parents portrayed as pathetic and flavorless characters before if not outright stupid.
