went into this based on the tagline and cast alone and, wow, i really enjoyed it. it was engaging, thought-provoking, had great characters, and moments of real heart amongst solid satire. and hilariously, it looks like the reactions to this film are proving its point. also amazing use of lana del rey. no notes.
