This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
