I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.
It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
