    Imagine, if you will , a really watred down "burlesque". That's basically this movie.

    This movie could have been something special. It's just unfortunate that the movie doesn't really know what it is. I think what was unfortunate for me was just all the potential I saw . The scipt had a few good barbs but felt way too scattershot and without decent arcs or payoffs. There was just so little magic. I think with a different…
