Very creative narrative structure, aided by the protagonist’s inability to write unambiguous notes to himself.

Urtext for every Scorsese movie.

Nice scenery, but little else.

An epic journey film without metaphor.

May be impossible to watch without smiling, for one reason or another.

All fan service.

Fairly novel take on an industry, much like “The Wrestler” in that way.

One of Wes Anderson’s better efforts.

The RiffTrax version is very good.

Glad it exists, and glad Spielberg made it, but severe third act logic issues and shallow characters keep this from being much better.
