Mickey 17 (2025)

Ohh mickey your not fine - Mickey 17 review by cr

Well this is one of the oddist films i have seen in a while.

Mickey and his friend attempt to open a macaroon business borrow heavily and get pursued by mobsters so jump on the nearest ship to ice world nilfiheim.

His mate is a pilot but he goes as an expendable who are used in experiments and suicide missions and are printed out human 3d printer style with their memories saved to hard drive when they are killed.

Much "hilarity" ensues when mickey 17 doesnt die and mickey 18 is spewed out the printer and their are two mickeys as duplicates.

I guess you could call it broad satire played for laughs but its not funny. There is a lot of mugging and over acting especially from mark ruffalo and toni collette and i struggled with what the point of it all was.

Was it to make a point about corporations and their billionaire bosses treating minimum wage workers like dirt while they wallow in luxury or was it the evils of technology or dumb human nature with its lazy incompetenance and disregard for nature and our planet?

Answers on a postcard!

Its too long tries to make too many points and isnt funny enough.

But good visuals and has some fun original ideas.
