Movie No. 21 (2016): WELCOME TO ME
Welcome To Me (2015)
The plot is interesting: Alice, a young woman with borderline personality disorder, wins a lottery - $86 M! What happens next? She stops her medication and buys her way to have her own TV show called Welcome To Me. The idea of the show is outrageous, but the TV network agrees in exchange of $15 M.
Director: Shira Piven
Cast: Kristen Wiig, James Marsden, Joan Cusack, Wes Bentley, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Tim Robbins

Indeed, it's interesting. The idea of the movie itself glued me to my seat until the end of the movie. However, I was clueless about what actually transpired during the entire (almost) 90 minutes of the movie's running time. Was I entertained? Maybe. But, everything went downhill from the part where Alice started the very first episode of the show despite some hilarious and really interesting snippets of the show (and the whole movie).
