The Dropout (2022)
5/10
God this is terrible

This is so terrible.

So "American" where "everything WILL work out / if only you kept saying it"

The constant insertions of pop songs I can't stand - it (to me) shows a lack of script talent.

So many times the lead character is jumping up and down to "pop songs" it makes me want to switch it off (strangely I stick with it - as I want to see the story - which I seem to remember being a complete con)

American films so often show how easy it is to make so much money as long as you "believe in youself" - never mind the reality.

The other thing is how Americans always boast about their success. We saw two entrepreneurs in this show boast one about how they sold their companies for $50m and the other for $40m. Whilst probably true - why do they have to boast about everything?

One even bragging about his damned car.

So what? You achieved success. Isn't that enuf without boasting about no how rich you are?

I stayed with it - I upgrated my rating to 5 (from 4) because it turns out to be a true story, I cant slag off the plot too much - but the lead actress is so annoying, since she nods her head right the wey through every episode, whether she is talking positively, negatively, or not talking at all - its so annoying.

Appalling.
