Remarkably Bright Creatures (2026) directed by Olivia Newman. Remember the outrage when Deckard's voiceover was added for the original theatrical release of Bladerunner? Now imagine Deckard is a CGI octopus, and you have this film. The story of the broken people in this film is predictable and meant to tug at heartstrings. (It's related to The Odyssey because the main storyline is about what constitutes home, and returning to it.) Plus it ends with a big old Hollywood happy ending plus the cherry on top of the sundae plus the chef's kiss. Like the gum stuck on the floor of the aquarium lobby that is one of the movie's main sets, "it's gross."
And don't even get me started on the arrogance of the octopus character or it's strange behaviors and movements!
Streaming on Netflix.
