When he arrives he finds that along with a prostitute Rita (Maya Rudolph) he has been chosen to test an experimental hibernation device that will revive the pair in one year's time.
No good will come of this.
CW: packed with slurs, generally offensive language, stereotypes and attitudes, which are all a key point of this pitch black satire
When the pair wake up in the far future they are unexpectedly the smartest people in a world that has devolved socially and intellectually.
The parallels, albeit obviously taken to extreme improbably outlandish lengths, with American MAGA style politics are frankly simultaneously terrifying and offensive. It's that portrait of Trump riding a tank while firing a machine gun and a bald Eagle flies overhead made into a parallel universe.
I sort of don't quite know what to make of it. Too offensive to be funny it chilled me given exactly where we are right now. It's all dick jokes, hur hur misogyny, gurning "redneck" impressions and calling somebody a "fag" for being anything but a childish leering bully. At one point there's a trial by combat involving Monster Trucks. Everything in the world is covered with corporate branding and everybody has automatic weapons.
It's not The Handmaid's Tale but also it's not not The Handmaid's Tale. You can express your disgust at what might come to pass in very different ways and still have something valid to say.
I think where this falls down though is it's just not funny enough and when you're going for the blackest of black satire it has to be funny too 6/10. Maybe it worked better before 2016 now it made me uneasy.
