Twenty-nine year old influencer Olivia is a simpleton who cannot even do the simplest task without messing it up somehow. Eating food? She gets it all over her face and cannot figure out how to get it off. Put a bag of trash in a dumpster? She rips the bag and spins around like an infomercial actor spreading trash all over the place. Told to close a door? She leaves it open and walks off. Honestly, I don’t know how she lived to be 29. Then you meet her parents and it all begins to make sense. They are horrible parents and have been enabling her failures by paying her bills for her. Now though, just to further cement their poor parenting skillz, they decide that since she is such a failure that they are going to financially cut her off cold turkey. Around this same time, she makes a foolish mistake while streaming and loses her biggest (and I guess only) client. Because of all of this, she ends up homeless. So now while literally laying on her back on a sidewalk, a handsome (and single) dude she used to ignore in high school comes walking up and guess what? He runs a local homeless shelter that has a world-renowned chef working there. He gives Olivia a job at the shelter and after a montage of her failing at sweeping, scrubbing and cleaning, she’s now broadcasting inspiring messages about our Lord and savior, Jesus Christ. My favorite being, “You know I spent so much time trying to gain followers, but I’m realizing in order to truly influence people, I must first know the one worth truly following, Jesus.” Amen, sister!
Despite its more sinful moments (mentioned above), DIVINE INFLUENCER does a good job of spreading the Word of God and realistically explaining how if you become homeless all you have to do is sweep a floor or two and God will provide by having your brain-dead parents start giving you money again, the handsome guy who runs the world’s cleanest homeless shelter will fall in love with you and “all the best designers and high end fashion stores” will donate enough goods for you to open your own retail store.

I don't know if this was on purpose or not, but I really enjoyed this brief shot of our young hero sitting in a waiting room dorking it up on her phone while some old white lady sits nearby quietly reading a book. (Sadly, not the Bible.) I like to believe that this shot was meant as an insult towards young versus old.
