Sorry, this movie sucks
Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
