The first time I walked out of a theathre

The film has acting reminiscent of extras and very obvious product placement, but these are somehow the least messed-up things.

Whoever filmed and edited the movie clearly has no clue about either. They haven't heard that using a full-frame camera and keeping the aperture at f-1.4 constantly doesn't make the film look good. They haven't heard about shutter speed synchronization with the frequency of artificial lighting, hence the flickering in dark and indoor scenes. Sometimes autofocus is used, leaving shots where the focus shifts due to automation. The shots are shaky, not to emphasize anything, but because the cinematographer had no idea what they were doing.

The editing jumps from scene to scene, several times cutting people off mid-sentence. It looks like poorly edited montage at times. When showing multiple angles in one scene, the background noise changes, leading me to believe a single camera with an attached microphone was used, and the editing team is handling something for the first time. There's a lack of synchronization between audio and picture due to likely improper re-recording. Probably no sound director, added effects are either too noisy or too quiet, there's a discrepancy from scene to scene due to different settings that no one has balanced. The microphones squeak at times. I don't even want to comment on the action scenes, plot holes, etc.
