Stylish but barely mediocre overall

After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.
