Extremely tacky. Spastic editing, an assault of colour and sound, terrible acting (even McGregor, who survived George Lucas’ direction, completely sucks here), cringy dialogue and a lot of awful song choices which are meant to juxtapose the vaudeville aesthetic but don’t work. I almost respect it for being so unashamed about what it is, but it’s too annoying to demand any real respect. Over the top direction needs to be rooted in something, otherwise it’s just going to be kitschy. I guess that’s just the best way of summarizing it: none of this rings true, every genuine emotion is buried underneath endless layers of cheese. Avoid this overproduced mess at all cost.
