The plot of Maggie Moore(s) makes for an intriguing trailer but a deeply flawed movie. The plot involves the death of two different women named Maggie Moore in the same small town exactly one week apart.

What I can say is that two episodes in, Obliterated knows what it is and doesn’t feel the need to be anything more than raunchy fun (with more obligatory nudity to try and save a lagging story) against the backdrop of a terrorist attack and humor that is nowhere near as funny as it thinks it is.

To put it kindly, let’s just say “Rise of the Numbericons: The Movie” has all the tell-tale signs of something that looks like it was much more fun to make than to watch.

Loosely based on real events, David O. Russell‘s uneven film follows the travails of three friends and survivors of World War I (Christian Bale, John David Washington, and Margot Robbie) who for a time lived together in Amsterdam before being reunited later in New York and embroiled in a murder mystery involving a poisoned general (Ed Begley Jr.) and the daughter (Taylor Swift) who police mistakenly believe the two men pushed in front of a moving car.
