Don't listen to the negative reviews
The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity
Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
