Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Hail, Caesar! (2016)

A glimpse into the day-to-day dealings of a movie studio executive. He handles gossip columnists, a pregnant swim-movie star, a cowboy star who can’t act, a young starlet participating in an illicit photo shoot, attempting to quit smoking, and the kidnapping by commies of his biggest star -- all while considering a better quality of life job offer.

And it just never gets funny. It’s fine, but it’s just a bunch of bits that never really take off.
