⭐️⭐️⭐️💫
Critical Score: B
Personal Score: B+

This one has a few long sequences of things going from bad to worse that are super wild. The commentary on technology is a bit boomer-y, but it’s only at the beginning. The writing in the camping portion is a bit too potty-humor for me, but the Silas Scratch bit was terrific.

Most of it was fun, but some parts were a little boring, and everything is really unrealistic, obviously
