Strong Performances from Some Great Actors, but...

Rating: 5/10 (9 August 2018)

...infantile view of capitalism, business, and careers. When the Anne Hathaway character steps up to meet the demands of a high-profile job, her 20-something friends effectively roll their eyes at her and label her a sellout. When the same character gets promoted over the Emily Blunt character, the moral dilemma is whether or not Ms. Blunt's character's feelings will be hurt. Oh, boo-f'in-hoo. The whole "I'm meaner than the devil" routine I can let slide as comedy; however, if does enforce this (again) infantile-perception that to demand excellence you have to be a meany.
