This movie is maximalist, so it hits a lot of things at the same time, so naturally people may tack on to whatever they are attracted to. If none of the above fits you, then so be it

I think that was part of why I didn’t care for it all that much. At least no more than it felt like an OK movie.
It felt like it was trying too hard to be too many things and not really excelling at any of them.
