Got a free pass to a sneak preview last night.Reasonably well-crafted technically - typical depression era sepias, taupes and browns. Flick gets off to a slow start. Strong performances from Crowe and Giammati carry it - mostly. Zellwegger is even more annoying than usual. Builds some momentum about 1/3 way in. Almost loses momentum at 2/3 mark. Picks up steam again for crowd pleasing finale.
I don't think Akiva Goldsman (co-screenwriter) ever met a cliche he didn't like. Howie needs a new scribe.
