I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
