Another meticulously-crafted, if wilder, Benoit Blanc caper.
From “Remake? Why?” to essential, timely, breathtaking update.
How satisfying to be in the hands of a writer/director who knows exactly what they’re doing – and to watch a stellar cast appreciating the hell out of that.
Emotionally raw and stylishly shot, with beguiling choices of filmmaking and storytelling. A cast of outstanding actors, all giving interesting, surprising performances.
For a film which manages a difficult setup with elegance and nuance, the resolution feels simple, and confusingly so.
Come for the catlike sleekness and sharpness of Blake Lively (and of her outfits – oof!), stay for the Anna Kendrick of it all.
Stranger than fiction? Apparently not.
A lovely time of a missed opportunity.
Edgar Wright-isms that before had only lasted for seconds or frames, here blown up into a feature-length, non-Cornetto instalment.
