Coronavirus Conspiracy

Right, well let me just start out by saying that you should not waste your time, money or effort on "Coronavirus Conspiracy", because this movie from writer and director James Sunshine was every bit as tasteless as it was pointless.

This movie was just a swing and a miss, especially since writer and director James Sunshine was treading on a treacherous grounds for even delving into such a project.

The storyline told in "Coronavirus Conspiracy" was boring, pointless and somewhat offensive, especially when you take into consideration the loss that the Corona Virus have left in its wake. So the movie is not something that is fun to watch, not even remotely. Plus the fact that it was poorly written, poorly executed and poor acted just didn't help to sell the product.

Personally, then it is fully and wholly beyond my comprehension why Joseph D. Reitman, John Lehr and Kimberley Crossman even opted to act in the movie. I suppose the persuasion of the allmighty dollar is just too strong for some people.

I didn't even get halfway through "Coronavirus Conspiracy" before I gave up. Partly because the movie was just downright laughably bad and idiotic, but also because there was nothing interesting in it. And let's just be honest, cashing in on a worldwide pandemic is just low.

My rating of "Coronavirus Conspiracy" lands on a one out of ten stars.

Humor is one of the best unique qualities we humans have. It's a mechanism we can deploy to cope with extreme stress and to stop us for a moment from running around in a self-created virtual maze of fear after we get bombarded with threatening information we cannot check or have no control over and ask ourselves: what is really going on? This film just might want to do that.

Artists have always been known to point out developments in society and bring people some light in darker times. I'm surprised not more artists have come forward to help us like that with this Corona theme.

This film is full of symbolism and analogies with what is going on in these corona times and other themes. I leave it to you to make the connections I appreciate what the creators of this film were set out to do, and I hope more artists will step up, but unfortunately for my taste it could have been more open; lighter, less art-y, the meanings less disguised. The film pushes way too much and therefore lacks a relaxing humor that should help us to see things differently and it also presents small puzzles about themes to people whose heads might already be too full with unanswered questions.

All in all too messy unfortunately.

This movie is mostly for 15-35yr internet meme culture lovers.

It starts very slow and it takes time to understand what is going on, but once you know more, you can't stop watching. The movie is a masterpiece. It doesn't take itself seriously, it has great humor and jokes and ideas that I haven't seen in any other movie.

This is the perfect meme movie- do not expect anything and expect everything.

First time through didn't appreciate as much as second and third. Mostly because didn't know what to expect. Once understood the talent of the actors to make this work, and the subtler parts of the overall script, found this to be very enjoyable.

Really fun to sit down and watch an independent film with a fresh take on issues that have affected all of us for the past year and a half. Strongly recommend giving this a watch and enjoying it.
