I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Good story, Not enough for a whole film
There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
