Why Gore Verbinski Disappeared From Hollywood
"In the opening moments of the gonzo sci-fi action-adventure comedy Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die, a wild-eyed character played by Sam Rockwell bursts into a Los Angeles-area diner with a bizarre hostage demand. Six randomly selected patrons must help him save humanity from marauding artificial intelligence or everyone in the restaurant dies via suicide vest. Claiming to have beamed in Terminator style from the dystopian, not-too-distant future,"
"Soon, he's rounded up six ill-prepared and mostly disbelieving randos (Zazie Beetz, Michael Peña, Haley Lu Richardson, and Juno Temple among them), who embark on what could be a suicide mission where they will encounter forces both wondrous and baffling: facing off against a legion of social-media-addicted Gen-Alpha quasi zombies, biomorphic mountains of murderous toys, and a brontosaurus-size cat creature with even more disproportionately massive genitals (not to mention a bottomless appetite for human flesh)."
Sam Rockwell portrays a frantic Man From the Future who storms a Los Angeles diner and forces six randomly selected patrons to help stop marauding artificial intelligence or face death by suicide vest. He claims to have beamed in from a dystopian near future and insists he has visited the same restaurant 117 times trying to avert the apocalypse. The group confronts social-media-addicted Gen-Alpha quasi-zombies, biomorphic mountains of murderous toys, and a brontosaurus-size cat creature with grotesque proportions and a bottomless appetite for human flesh. The film premiered at Austin's Fantastic Fest and won over critics and many audiences. Director Gore Verbinski marks a return after a hiatus since 2017's A Cure for Wellness, prompting commentary about his Hollywood standing.
