It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
