This movie is contrived, pretentious, and unrealistic...but I love it!

Rating: 9/10 (23 January 2017)

The soundtrack and foreign settings are grandiose enough to be eye- catching, but the most profound element for me here is the layers of satire and puns that take a few watches to catch fully.
What could be more tongue-in-cheek than Julia Roberts portraying Julia Roberts?
The reason why I think many were put off by this movie, is the very reason I find it so enamoring; the dialogue and plot points in the film give off an excessive feeling of premeditation, but this allows it to reach greater heights than films that attempt to impose as organic or biographical.
