So...there I was, minding my own business, when the Max comedy section offers me this movie, self described as socially distanced satire. Being a gullible deplorable, as it were, I thought, what the heck, give these insufferable narcissists one more chance. Probably you can guess at the rest. It ain't comedy, it ain't satire, and it certainly is not entertainment. It is an extended rant from a has-been public personality, captured on hot mic because no one in their right mind would let an actual interview like this go on for more than 180 seconds. But I have to hand it to the Midler - getting people to pay you for simply rambling and also having the rambling be utterly predictable is like a miracle, where chaos theory and a random numbers table create a perfectly straight line.
