One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.
The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
