I'm still looking for the full length version though.
Rate The Last Movie You Saw
I don't see how you can rate this movie so low. It's a solid comedy.
And just to throw that into even greater perspective...
Don's Plum -
in which Leonardo DiCaprio shows how good he would've been at playing Randal from Clerks

Funny Games (1997) - 6.8/10. It is good film. The plot is set up and executed nicely. The acting is okay-ish. Enjoyed it very much!

Savage Streets (1984)
An 80s rape and revenge film starring Linda Blair and Linnea Quickley. I remembered not liking this too much as a kid and the situation certainly hasn't changed. On a positive note, it has lots of nudity just for the sake of it and the soundtrack is rather good. The script is terrible (filled with filler scenes in high school), acting is horrendous (hard to imagine that Blair once was an Oscar nominee) and the whole is just damn boring.

The Lovebirds (2020)
I had high hopes for this one after seeing the trailer simply because of the chemistry these two seem to give off. I think their acting manages to keep this relatively watchable, but there are several scenes with punchlines that don't land for me. Reminds me of Stuber (also with Kumail Nanjiani) where the two main characters play well off each other, but the script doesn't seem to take good enough advantage of it.

I'd rate it even lower. Maybe one of the most excruciating movies I've ever seen.
I think to be fair you have to at least give it 2.5/5. It's an average movie. It has some very funny scenes, and mostly it's just okay, but there's nothing "bad" about it. Why would you rate it so low?

Woody Allen as James Bond's nephew, gets caught in Cuba and taken to the firing squad. "My doctor says bullets are not to enter my body at any time. I have a very low tolerance for death."

I am under no obligation to "at least give it 2.5/5" and I would think that a self-styled elitist such as yourself would understand that.
Overall, most of the movie I found just okay. But, I'm curious, what did you think of Woody Allen's scenes? His scenes were the best in my opinion, and genuinely funny. Did you not think even those few scenes were funny? The firing squad, and the ending where he has the girl on the slab?

I'm not a fan of Allen in general, much less in this movie.

Motel Acacia (2019)
A Filipino horror that would best be described as a mess. It's an incoherent mix of Alien, The Thing, Filipino folklore, and a critique of immigration policies. Technically it's rather decent, but writing is just too much all over the place. It's a boring pile of just about everything.

Debris Documentar (2003)
I don't know how to rate this. It's sort of a 10 if you look at it a certain way. It's the 4th movie I've seen from extreme film director Marian Dora and it's the most repugnant of the bunch. It's probably the most relentlessly revolting movie I've seen. It makes Slaughtered Vomit Dolls look like a cartoon and Salo look like a family movie. I'll just post the synopsis from Wiki, read at your own risk-
"The film, released on DVD in 2014 as part of a boxset also containitng Melancholie der Engel(2009) and Reise nach Agatis (2010),[1] deals with the everyday life of a man, Carsten (Carsten Frank [de]), who works on the set of the 2004 Ulli Lommel film Zombie Nation. At the same time, he is planning to realize his own film, a task he finds extremely difficult. First, he tries to place casting ads in a supermarket. During his daily work on the film set, the man seems frustrated. Also, he is isolated in his private life, and spends his time by watching and masturbating to his opulent VHS film collection of homosexual rape pornography and films such as Cesare Canevari’s 1977 Gestapo’s Last Orgy, Dennis Donnelly's 1978 The Toolbox Murders, Werner Herzog’s 1974 The Enigma of Kaspar Hauser, Peter Schamoni’s 1976 Potato Fritz [de], and Rino Di Silvestro’s 1976 Werewolf Woman, and tinkering with props for his own planned film. He also likes to read Astrid Proll’s works about Andreas Baader and Ulrike Meinhof and the writings of Eduard Mörike. In his spare time, he shoots photos of animal cadavers while playing with them, also partly collecting them to take home with him, as he seems to have sexual attraction to them, and rapes women (Martina Adora, Stefanie Müller, and Carina Palmer) in the woods while they urinate. He indulges in several disturbing sexual fetishes including defecating, urinating, necrophilia, bestiality, anal fisting, rape, murder, nose-picking, and other unspeakable acts. He is in regular contact with a prostitute, Patrizia (Patrizia Johann), who puts an enema into her anus and defecates into a bucket while placing the man onto a table, shoving her fist into his anus and pulling feces out of there while he is putting the bucket to his face. By telephone, he also stays in contact with Jesús Franco, Katja Bienert [de; fr; ru], Peter Martell, and David Hess (who composed most of this film's score). After a while, he actually contacted a woman, Franziska (Alexandra Dumas), who read his advertisement in the supermarket. They arrange a meeting in the man's house. When he tells her what he is supposed to do in his film, the woman gets scared and wants to leave the house. Then, Carsten overwhelms her and kills her by strangling her with a telephone cord and beating her head. Afterwards, he films himself as he is sexually aroused by her corpse. He cuts her nipples off in graphic detail and uses his scalpel to cut the dead woman's clitoris off. He then takes the scalpel and peels the skin off one of her fingers and eats the pieces of dismembered skin. The film ends with a scene showing Carsten burning the same woman's body and going jogging, as in the first shot of this film."
