Typical example of how dumb writers assume smart people think

This movie is a mess. Every part of it. Considering the absolutely moronic assumptions the supposedly top 1% genii in the room make, I'm surprised they're able to tie their shoes in the morning. They can't even follow simple directions.

Let's start with the script. As I mention in the title, this movie is a typical example of a dumb writer attempting to write smart characters. However, each one of them is dumber than a doornail. Seriously, one of them doesn't know the difference between a psychologist and a psychiatrist; another incorrectly diagnoses one of the characters with Narcissistic Personality Disorder, even though it was obviously sociopathy; yet another thinks an orange glowlight is "infrared". Considering this movie is 85 minutes of eight people in a room, the characters are less than paper thin.

We're supposed to think these people are the best of the best. Yet for some reason, many of them completely disregard extremely simple requests, such as "don't spoil your piece of paper" or "don't talk to this guy". They're also constantly super proud of even the simplest of revelations, like "he didn't say we couldn't talk to each other!" Wow, guy. No sht.

Now, on to the plot. Which plot? Exactly. Something stupid about finding the best candidate for some pharmaceutical company to do something undefined. A company, by the way, which according to one of the characters has "a market cap of 60 billion, making it like the economic size of the eighth biggest country". NO IT DOESN'T. It would put it around number 75. 60 billion market cap is jack nothing.

Oh, and the candidate is picked on her ability to answer a SUPER SIMPLE TRICK QUESTION. Yes, the woman tasked to help roll out a world-altering drug is chosen based on the stupidest, most obvious riddle possible.

SCREW YOU, MOVIE. SCREW YOU.

And lastly, if those lights had no added value, how could they possibly predict people would start busting the blacklights?

SCREEEEEEWWWW YOU, movie.
