Maybe this is a decent movie, I don't know.
What I do know is that I tried watching it on Amazon Prime and the sound was very badly muffled, making it impossible for me to make it what was being said.
On top of that, there were no subtitles, or Captioning available.
I do have a hearing impairment, but there are still many things I can watch, without subtitles. Those where the sound is poorly produced, are still watchable, with subtitles.
For a film made as recently as 2022, I would expect to have Captioning available.
The best solution would be to make clearer sound, for customers watching on TV, or home media - but failing that, provide subtitles.
It doesn't seem like a very high expectation, with modern technology, and film-making.
I would call it the bare minimum.
There must be thousands, if not millions of viewers, like me, who have to switch off. Very foolish of film makers, and media outlets, to ignore the deaf and hard of hearing, in this way.
