A terrible case of trying too hard.
It's black & white. Fine.
It has more unnaturally-crafted awkward/uncomfortable moments than Borat.
The riveting Wi-Fi password writing & creepy sleep-watching scenes were reeeeal steering wheel-jerkers.
And... we get it. Alan has anxiety. WE. GET. IT.
Seems somewhat agoraphobic as well but with the insistent dialogue, one can't even gain an ounce of empathy for the character.
The only kudos I could give this "What Ever Happened to Auntie Mame" was the scene where Marcos talks Alan down from a panic attack.
The verbal queues mimicking intimate "dirty talk" WERE a smart metaphor for any sex scenes usually in one of these films.
For that, credit due!
