I liked the idea behind the movie, but the movie itself wasn't very good. It was a bit like the movie Mickey 17, it didn't quite know what it wanted to be and tried to be a lot of things, but none of it really stuck and it ended up being a bit incoherent. The ending I thought was powerful though.

I don't think the movie was snobby: it was full of over-the-top gags, and it was clear to me that the movie was never taking itself too seriously.

The main character (played by DiCaprio) is also depicted as a quite flawed and vain human being as well.

Also honestly, who doesn't feel frustration at the whole real-world situation the movie is actually about?
