From where to even begin? The movie is absolutely immaculate. The acting is beyond reasonable. I would say that perhaps this Greta's most loved film but that would be an extreme allegation considering the public opinion. The movie roars out of the gate with an inventiveness and energy which perhaps the audience was not all set for. The film spreads its politics explicitly, using rudimentary ideas about the performance of gender, gender inequality and consumerism to fuel the plot and inform its comic beats. You would even forget that the movie is actually, and in essence, about a doll because the plot is quite indulging. What i admired most is Helen Mirren performing the narration, not to forget that the casting was also impressive.
