Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,
I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.
The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
