It’s a guilty pleasure, but at least it’s a guilty pleasure for the literate, starring an actor who has just begun to reveal everything that she has to give. Go to Full Review

3/5

Guy Lodge Variety 6d

Elissa Suh Moviepudding (Substack) 1d
Viciously hilarious piece of Gothic entertainment that serves as a showcase for Monroe’s newly revealed comedic talents Go to Full Review

6/10
