    National Theatre Live: The Importance of Being Earnest

    ★★★★

    an incredible delight, beautiful comedic performances and awe striking set and costume design

    The Substance

    ½

    so hallucinogenic and whacky, and not in an interesting way. disappointing and deranged. incoherent in terms of its story, its message, and its editing. the premise is internally inconsistent. it’s hateful of women and their bodies despite its conceit. every decent shot has five more duplicate shots in case you missed it the first time. insistent of its own intelligence but treats its audience like infants. drags on for an eternity. could’ve been an interesting short if it wasn’t taken…

    ★★½

    non committal. philosophically juvenile. piddly dialogue. even toni collette’s seemingly impenetrable star power is dimmed by this film’s offensive mediocrity.

    ★★★½

    the highest stakes of any comedy i have ever seen. actually laughed out loud many times which is rare for me. immaculate comedic performances. sometimes confusing editing.
