Red Notice—Netflix’s latest bid at spawning an action film franchise—feels like it has been created by an algorithm in a Hollywood lab. Will it follow in the footsteps of Extraction, or end up more like 6 Underground?
We discuss how tragically it wastes three of the world’s biggest movie stars in Dwayne Johnson, Ryan Reynolds, and Gal Gadot—while pondering over the boring and repetitive careers of the former two.
We also talk about the film’s big twist and how it lies to the audience, wonder where the obnoxious amounts of money spent on it went, and why Netflix is at times happy to just feed the keywords.
