So, 'Soft Focus with Jena Friedman 2' is really an intriguing mix of comedy and social commentary. The whole premise revolves around Jena’s effort to confront the harassment that female gamers deal with, which she does through this VR game. It’s a rather unique angle, and the way she navigates these heavy themes with humor makes for an interesting viewing experience. The pacing feels organic; it flows well from her VR creation to a candid interview with John McAfee, which is equally bizarre and enlightening. The practical effects in the VR sequences are charmingly low-fi, kind of adds to the DIY vibe of the project. Jena's performance is both biting and relatable, which is what sets this apart from other documentaries or comedies tackling similar subjects.
