So patronizing to the great historians and philosophers too.
You know they skimmed the cliff notes version or that stupid self-published Jash Dholani summary krap of the Greats that Luigi Mangione wanted to fund/ donate.
Puke on all those characters.
+1. All douchebags
Aren’t they meant to be?

It was meh for me. I didn’t think the writing or acting was good enough to carry it.

OP here: I made it through about 65 minutes before I fell asleep on Sunday. I love Succession too, but the writing for this was just bad.
I know these guys are supposed to be insufferable narcissists, but there's a legion of young men who will watch Mountainhead and try to emulate the dumb antics. Sorta like how Gordon Gecko or Patrick Bateman became a hero to financial guys IRL.
Probably

Not an uplifting movie though and left me feeling a little seedy for having watched.
+1. There's a turning point after which it's much funnier/more involving.

Same. I tried but turned it off. Bad timing on this. Who wants to watch anything about a group of billionaires while the world is imploding.

Watches twenty minutes of it and found it unwatchable as well.

Yes, because all these foreign chuds are psychopath narcissists.
