"don't look up" has been quite a divisive film -- which is ironic because divisiveness is one of the movie's main topics. i discuss why i enjoyed the film from a philosophical point of view. though it is not revolutionary, it is important to be reminded of. p.s. someone tell me to cut my bangs, they're always in my eyes.
