Don't Look Up

Don't Look Up, a dark satirical comedy, primarily evokes Humor through its exaggerated portrayal of societal dysfunction. This is closely followed by strong feelings of Anger and Disgust at the political indifference, media sensationalism, and public apathy towards an existential threat. As the plot progresses towards its inevitable conclusion, Anxiety and Sadness become prominent, reflecting the characters' and audience's despair over humanity's self-destructive tendencies. Empathy is felt for the scientists desperately trying to warn the world, while an overarching sense of Melancholy and Disturbing realization underscores the film's grim message about our collective failure to address crises.
