Strange World (2022)

It has a lot of great and interesting ideas that just sort of flounder around looking for something to do. Characters are not well fleshed out. Everything felt sort of pointless. It has few laughs and no tears. Lots of things happen and quickly resolve without consequence. The overall outcome for the characters would have been similar even if they’d stayed home. It’s pretty, but all the characters are bulbous and squishy with no expression. In short, it’s nothing special–just a bland, inoffensive trip into a glowing place.Ethan is especially annoying. Frequently putting himself and others in danger; he remains oblivious and immune to the consequences of his actions, and is ultimately rewarded for being a reckless teenager. He doesn’t have any ambition, skills, or direction. Stuff just kind of happens to him. Is he the main character? It was hard to tell.I think this one can safely be skipped. You won’t be missing much.
