Honey Don't!

What a mess. Margaret Qualley and Aubrey Plaza carried this hard; without them it’d be more like a 2/10. I think the plot was going for a kind of meandering vibe, but it completely missed the mark and just ended up as a load of nonsense.

The whole thing felt very male-gaze-y. Pretty sure Lera Abova’s character only really exists so she can be naked in the opening scene for no particular reason. Then Charlie Day just did that high-pitched voice thing he does in IASIP, and Chris Evans played a larger-than-life character that was just… completely irrelevant?
