  You know those “the power of cinema” adverts that cinemas sometimes play before the film starts, with clips from various movies poorly edited together? Imagine a feature length version of that. Unbearable: like a cinephile’s Ready Player One, screaming “do you remember?! we remember!!!” for about an hour longer than necessary. The only valuable thing I took away from this is the realisation that acting has improved immeasurably in the last 100 years.
