Film Perfection
I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
