Ein Film darüber, wie unsere Welt auf dem Weg in einen großen Arsch ist. Leider habe ich auch manchmal das Gefühl, dass wir thematische Veranstaltungen/Partys/Events lieber ohne ein Thema haben werden, damit wir niemanden beleidigen oder schockieren und damit niemand das Gefühl hat, dass wir gehässig und überheblich sind. Jede Institution, jeder Film, jedes Buch, jede Entscheidung muss aus tausend Blickwinkeln neutral sein aus den oben genannten Gründen. Es ist eigentlich eine traurige Komödie, denn zum Wohl unserer Kinder beißen wir meistens die Zähne zusammen und lassen uns mit Unsinn auf den Kopf scheißen. Es bleibt nichts anderes übrig, als zu hoffen, dass die Welt eine Art Normalität, Ausgeglichenheit und Gleichgewicht erreicht und wir zumindest wie die Helden dieser Geschichte enden.

A group of guys navigating a world they don't fully understand — that's the core message of this film, and it's one I can relate to at times. While I didn't always get where they were coming from, I still found myself entertained. For a comedy about three dads trying to figure things out, three stars feels just right.

A good take on the trends of the time, such as trannies, black/white, ticktock, influencers and all the other vermin of today's perverted times, performed by three "boomers" or middle-aged fathers who just don't like the times and aren't afraid to tell everyone their opinion. Some parts are better, but overall the film still rides a nice wave and isn't afraid of bad language or fun situational humor. The only downside I can see is the lack of stronger one-liners that would give the film some juice and make me want to rewatch or reminisce it, but otherwise it's a fine inoffensive period Netflix film.

I was partly entertained and partly suffering through the crap that's so popular these days, the kind of stuff Bill Burr obviously hates as much as I do. I couldn't give it more than three stars though, because Bill Burr wasn't really acting, he was just being himself the whole time. I'm not sure why some viewers are surprised about him being a family man since he's never made a secret of it. When you boil it down, the whole thing is basically an extract from his life with most of the plot pieces stitched together from his stand-up routines. I had a decent time but I can't rate it higher for the reasons mentioned above. / Lesson learned: Yes, I'm officially a dinosaur.
