Some prognosticators these days are contending that humanity is headed for a plunge off the edge of a cliff from which there’s no return. Others have even said that we’re already past that point. Either way, it would seem we’re at a critical juncture, a turning point of potentially mammoth proportions. But can anything be done to save us? That’s the question posed in director Gore Verbinski’s latest offering, a …

Highly entertaining and pressing This movie has spectacular casting, top to bottom, a plot that keeps you engaged, memorable and likable characters that makes the tension work, great direction, and a look that feels dynamic and real enough, even when it isn't. The message is poignant too, which is great, but even without it, this would be a grand movie. I highly recommend it.

In best Christopher Lloyd style, a man arrives in a busy diner claiming to be from the future. He (Sam Rockwell) also claims that this is the umpteenth time he has been to the place, at the same time, trying to recruit some of the diners to join him on a quest to thwart the ultimate takeover of society by an AI whizzkid. Of course they think he’s a few bricks short of a load, but when he reveals his detonator a few …

#nfotd GOOD LUCK, HAVE FUN, DON'T DIE I don't know that I would say this is a "good" movie but it was very entertaining, right up until it fell off a cliff in the last 30 minutes (of a 30-minutes-too-long movie). 100% chance most people involved in creating this were on mushrooms.

We watched "Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die" last night, and — no spoilers — it is *very* funny and fun, but holy moly it may be the single darkest movie I have ever seen. I mean, yikes. But it's making me think, and realizing it has more layers than I first thought.
How this was made: an AI model (deepseek-v4-flash) read 34 of the 210 public posts we collected about this film and wrote the summary, likes and dislikes, citing the posts behind each point ([n] opens the post). A second AI pass checked every statement against the posts it cites; anything it could not match was removed, and code removed any statement with quotation marks, numbers that are not in the posts, or unattributed claims about people. The split is counted from the posts’ own ratings. Generated Oct 10, 2026. Method
Critics, per Wikipedia
Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 66 out of 100, based on 32 critics, indicating "generally favorable" reviews. Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "B" on an A+ to F scale. On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 81% of 232 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 7.1/10. The website's consensus reads: "A gleeful high-concept comedy with a serious message at its core, Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die lets Sam Rockwell rip with thrilling results while marking a very welcome return of director Gore Verbinski to peak form." Peter Debruge of Variety called the film "an unapologetically irreverent, wildly…

neutral · AI labelView post →"Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die" (2026) is a pretty messy movie. It has some amazing and powerful brushstrokes but the the whole picture is disjointed. Like someone tried to take episodes of Black Mirror, Doctor Who, & Firefly and cobble them into a single narrative.
neutral · AI labelView post →"GOOD LUCK HAVE FUN DON'T DIE." Frustratingly almost good. Classic example 'angry-about-technology' scifi that doesn't care to fully understand its target and instead settles on being angry at "People who don't hate the same things about tech and society that [the movie] hates."
