[6.25/10] House of Gucci (2021)

House of Gucci (2021)

Quick Review: Stylish, but far from fashion-centric, rushed yet sluggish, and murky in feel and look, if campy in its approach, "House of Gucci" is a tonally muddled affair of greed, wealth, betrayal, murder, alienation, and manipulation that also plays as an old-fashioned romance, and the result is a mildly intriguing and often amusing tale with a hit-n-miss cast - Gaga owns the cunning and driven Patrizia, Leto is comically over-the-top, Pacino and Irons are excellent, but Driver falls a bit flat.

Quite the cast. Which unfortunately doesn't always pan out to a good movie.

Exactly. It turned out very different from what I expected.
