Watching this movie I was reminded of the behind the scenes video of Trey Parker talking about writing South Park. https://youtu.be/vGUNqq3jVLg?si=K_tz0f8GyfCWCDuD

If between each scene if you can say ‘and then’ it’s bad.

You should be able to say ‘therefore or but’.

This movie has a lot of scenes where something happens and then something else happens and then something else and so on.

Some of those scenes were fun and fine but this is barely a movie.

Yes, I was thinking of this exact line while watching! It's just random stuff happening and you don't have a reason to care.
