Coronavirus Conspiracy

Like making a comedy about The Holocaust! Unbelievable this was made. 4.55 million dead and you make a comedy about it! SHAME on everyone involved!

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.

Acting is excellent here and makes the show, its really all about the 2 main characters and how they interact with each other trying to deal with a difficult situation. Lots of LOL moments.

Maybe it should have been titled something else, but its a real shame a bunch of covidiots have rated this 1, its a hidden unappreciated gem.

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.

First of all, this movie is NOT about the Covid epidemic, regardless of the name. At first glance, I thought so too, and for the first 20 minutes of the film I was trying to connect it until I understood what was going on. In fact, the film is about everything and nothing. About the way people react to good and bad things. For pursuing illusory goals that seem insignificant years later. That the solution to one problem is the beginning of another.

It's really hard to watch a play with two actors who are shouting at each other most of the time, but after the initial orientation it became interesting and my rating of 2 points finally went to 7. Of course, it's even harder to act in such a play and credit must be given to both actors.

If you manage to watch the first 20 minutes, you'll probably enjoy it.
