Crystal Palace’s review published on Letterboxd:
couldnt fall in love with this the way a lot of other people have seemed to. there were a lot of writing/narrative choices that bothered me the entire run time (which dragged on too long) that couldnt be mitigated with amazing visuals, costumes, makeup, performances, or some funny gags. way too overhyped and way too under critiqued with regards to symbolism imo. lazy writing does that to an mfer.
edit: blech the more i think about it the more i feel like this was just a 2.5 hour live action family guy episode complete with an extended chicken fight, brian giving patronizing speeches about existence, and mort the jew by way of casting a jewish woman as a character called 'big nose'. absolutely not.
