It just isn't very good. Tries to be clever. It tries to be stylish. It is is very trying.
You have to actually love something, truly love something, to take off from it in any way. There is no love here. There is patronizing sniggers & quaint condescension.
I'm a big fan of Owen Wilson. He does his best with what he's given in this film. But what he is given is soulless. Yes! Soulless. This film has no soul. It has no power. All contemporary neo PC ticks are in place & that is reflected in the work; soulless, unrelatable & jaded. Like a supermarket bought Bowie t-shirt. There's nothing authentic.
