The author expresses a strong refusal to watch Eli Roth's new film, "Ice Cream Man," citing two primary reasons. The first and most obvious reason is the director's alleged use of Generative AI in the film's production, which the author views as a sign of laziness and a detriment to the movie's quality, echoing negative sentiments from online commenters and critics. The second reason delves into the film's narrative concept, where the author feels the portrayal of 'evil kids' lacks the necessary narrative depth or 'corruption of the audience' to make the violence cathartic, contrasting it with films like "Ballerina" or "The Good Son."
