Fails by checking all the hallmarks

Warning: Spoilers
It has all the hallmarks checked for a typical patchwork film production. I can vividly imagine the writer sitting at his desk brainstorming the list of action points of his soon to be flick. Let us see whether he checked all the boxes: lots of drugs, sex (not too much, we are still swiss after all..), some rock n' roll, drones, swiss special forces (to please the military crowd), lots of Guns (preferably the big ones), terminator-style self-treatment of bullet wound, copious references to local cervelat-celebrities, reference to the local capo (aka chief of state aka the 'Bundesrat'), crazy secret cults with robed and masked figures, making fun of yoga-culture, nazism, social media, cars (sports cars preferably), drowning in faeces, making fun of people with speech defect, explosions, hacking, homosexuality, martial arts scene.

Quite a list. Now the whole art consists in thinking up a half-baked story that connects all of these bullet points. Stir it three times. Done!

What I personally missed was at least one little scene depicting a high speed skiing chase in the swiss alps and - zombies (do they finally get out of fashion?).
