So this is the totally relatable story about the end of a marriage between two totally normal and fully relatable people — Adam Driver is an avant-garde Broadway director who won a MacArthur genius grant, and Scarlett Johansson is a famous actress who just got picked to lead a new sitcom, and obviously their problems (such as how they’re going to split custody when her job is in Hollywood and his is on Broadway) are totally typical and normal.

But so basically the arc of the movie is that they say they want an amicable divorce, but then it becomes clear that they have some non-negotiable sticking points (i.e., the Hollywood vs. NYC location) that they’re going to have to fight out, at which point she hires sharktacular lawyer Laura Dern, and it’s a no-holds-barred hatefest.

That’s most of the movie, and it’s monstrously unpleasant, not just because it’s about unpleasant things, but because they’re both being wildly horrid in obnoxious ways, and uuuggghhhhhhhhh.

I actually stopped watching the movie months ago, but since Netflix keeps your unfinished movies sitting at the top row waiting for you, and since I only had like 20 minutes left, and since I figured I should write it up one way or another, I watched the last little bit of it just now.

Really, about the only thing this movie has going for it is Laura Dern, whose character is great. Beyond that, it’s just a pile of self-absorbed narcissists being awful at each other. Not recommended.
