This movie feels cheaper than a Netflix movie, and that says a lot. The core joke is "immigrant life is comically hard haha" aka- recycled Borat jokes. An American Pickle marketed itself as being about an immigrant family but it just veers into a bunch of dumb humor about current politics. It’s not funny enough to be a comedy, and it doesn’t have enough of a story to be anything else.
The fake "eastern Europe accent" is u-n-b-e-a-r-a-b-l-e! And what the actual fuck is "eastern Europe accent"? Russian? Hungarian? I know Americans are extremely dumb and so, so, so terrible with languages but come on. Fake "[anything not-English] English" always sounds like mockery. Stop it.
