i go to this picture with the hope that if nothing else watch john malkovich play a highly troubled delusional queen with a genius for manipulation and an obscene fashion sense would be enough to keep me entertain for an hour and change . it wasn not . the flick barely worth analyze while it simply a mess and handle so poorly that malkovich moment of comic mastery be lose in a sea of poorly execute photography and tepid writing and haphazard form . while director or prod brian cook be one of kubrick assistant director we see that little to no talent ever rub off thing get so bad that one cling to the often force and clumsy musical or visual homage to the genius work to at least quell that nag voice that would not stop whisper you spent eleven dollar on this . you spend eleven dollar on this . to say nothing about the quality of act and photography and writing and form and pace and etc . and one can credit color me kubrick a a charming premise and but one go sodden and awry with mediocre film making .
