It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.
Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.
A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
