Like a marshmallow and paperclip beef stew: there's a lot in it but it doesn't go together well.

So, at first I thought the film was a tribute to the love of cinema and I was like, Oh, cool. But then I was like, Oh, the movie's about mental health issues, cool. But then I was all, Oh wait, it's about an unlikely romance, ok, cool. But then I was like, Hmm, I think it's an anti-racsim movie?

And then I was like, I wish Mendes could focus on one subject and stop head hopping among characters.

Whatever, I'll never pass up the opportunity to remind people what anti-vaxxer Eric Clapton said on stage in a concert during the period when this film was set:

Do we have any foreigners in the audience tonight? If so, please put up your hands... So where are you? Well wherever you all are, I think you should all just leave. Not just leave the hall, leave our country... I don’t want you here, in the room or in my country. I think we should send them all back. Stop Britain from becoming a black colony. Get the foreigners out. Get the wogs out. Get the coons out. Keep Britain white!

Watch the documentary White Riot instead!
