“Unwilling to offend or alienate even a single paying customer, the filmmakers have scientifically extracted every molecule of potential conflict from the drama. Where we could be in store for a juicy tale about adultery, or sexual obsession, or ruthless Hollywood ego clashes, we are instead treated to a movie about … nothing whatsoever.”
