Boring

Rating: Null/10 (12 March 2016)

Beautifully made -- that's the only positive thing I can say about this film.
There's virtually no story. No drama. Nothing really happens. There's 2-3 laughs. It's a Coen Brothers vanity flick with a whole bunch of A-listers and their mates.
The funniest thing about this film is all the up-their-own-backside "professional" critics who are praising it and saying explicitly or implicitly that if you don't get, the movie isn't aimed at you. In other words, you're not in the know -- you need to appreciate 1950s Hollywood to get this movie.
I'm a big fan of the Coen Brothers -- they have made some amazing films. But I notice that when artists get to the top, they lose their hunger. They start putting out crap. Hopefully this is just a one-off.
