Don't Look Up is about the climate crisis, you just need an IQ over 80 to realize it... Also very funny that it stars a guy who owns a yacht worth over 100m that probably emits more pollution in a day than most people do in a year...
It was also criticized for being "too on the nose", which is exactly the type of behavior that the movie was criticizing. Basically the world is ending and when someone tries to raise awareness people don't react, so they get louder and lose patience because the world is fucking ending, and then get told not to be alarmist and to stop freaking out. It's the plot of the movie, and it's what happened to the movie.
