Moviegoers are saying

Rich Flu delivers a provocative 'eat the rich' premise about a virus that kills the wealthy, but audiences are split between those who appreciate its over-the-top satirical black comedy and those who find it an intellectually shallow disaster with nonsensical plotting. The film features Mary Elizabeth Winstead navigating wealth and poverty, but loses most viewers with its confusing structure, lack of subtlety, and a bizarre final act that abandons dialogue entirely.

Ich dachte, Filmparodien kann heute keiner mehr, ihr wisst schon, sowas wie Die Nackte Kanone oder Hot Shots, wo jemand ein ganzes Genre verarscht. Schwachsinnige Gags am laufenden Band, bescheuerte Story, man muss die ganze Zeit über hirnrissigen Nonsens lachen. Sowas…

Su premisa distópica es interesante, estando desarrollada de manera confusa y sin sutileza alguna. El guion no está a la altura de su ambición, lastrado por problemas de ritmo y su incapacidad de hacer algo interesante con sus ideas.

Rich Flu

Honestly, I don't know if this film does too much or too little. The pros outweigh the cons, mostly because it isn't afraid to speak on the impact wealth has worldwide, presenting it as a disease spread from the ultra-wealthy to the ultra-needy. The casting and cinematography were great, although…

4.2/10 Es una buena idea, pero creo que está muy mal ejecutada, querían poner muchas cosas y al final las dejaban sin contestar. Podría ser mejor
