Misleading

Rating: 1/10 (23 December 2018)

Where is the hilarious romp that the ads suggest? This is NOT Tom Jones, but rather a dark, sour tale, ploddingly told with long stretches of boredom. To top it off, the photography is dark and gothic, and the score is either annoying or nonexistent. The end, if that's what you want to call it, is even worse than the two hours that precede it, if that is at all possible. The actresses, particularly Emma Stone, are good, but you wish that you were watching them in something other than this avoidable pill.
