Let me say that I like Drew Barrymore as a person, an actress but this seems to be low for her to play a double lead in this film. But why would she Drew want her name tied to this "project" is the real question. I get the concept of the film but it's poorly executed, and definitely the opposite of comedy. There's no form of comedy in this at all, period.
If boring/stupid was a genre, this film would be in that category. The only believable thing I do see with this film is the sort of message in the sense of giving Hollywood the big middle finger to acting altogether, hence why Drew is now a talk show host.
When the real "Candy Black" says that she's done with acting and wants a normal life, think about it-Drew hasn't had any legitimate movie roles in years with the exception of her hilarious comedy series The Santa Clarita Diet, which sadly (and disappointingly) ended its run. I believe this film does shed some truth that she is in some ways done with acting. I think her being a present talk show host is what brings her true happiness, and this is why we now see her in daytime TV rather than in big box office films.
Either way, she'll always be famous and I can respect whatever she does. She's still making big bucks on projects whether it's good or bad. Let her hustle.
