Funny little movie about making movies. Very strong cast, and good pacing.

There's fun to be had here with this behind-the-scenes story and its restricted time and location setting, though the film's probably a bit too light-hearted with its humour and story. The cynical movie-set satire works usually in the one-liners, but some of the story points are either ridiculous, predictable, or unimpactful. A breezy easy watch, but I expected more of a punch from Mamet.

Its ighthearted cheer in dealing with possibly the vilest aspects of Hollywood may either be meta or simply just callous, but in either case it explains the whole Polanski case very well. A thoroughly unpleasant experience.

It might just be the cast (hey there Matt Malloy), but apparently Mamet doing comedy comes off sort of like Hal Hartley-lite with a bit of Coen Brothers-style condescension thrown in. Some of it actually works perfectly, and it's at least consistently enjoyable even if it ultimately gets kind of earnest and sappy (thankfully, Mamet limits his usual macho histrionics mostly to one character). If nothing else, i found it incredibly bittersweet to see Hoffman play a nebbishy romantic lead for once.

Another Mamet film (this one comparatively light) on truth-as-produced and the corrosive power of capital and celebrity in spectacular America. Comedic highlight occurs when a bit player utters the throwaway line, "I didn't know it was illegal."

The script follows her suit: random turns of events try to add a zany edge to the film, but it just ends up overlong and ridiculous. [Full Review]
