You won't be disappointed!
Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
