As another review wrote: "Altman was clearly saying with this film how ridiculous the fashion industry is." Unfortunately, you have to endure 2 hours of completely boring, unfunny "French farce" to get to the part of the film that makes this point. (That would be the last 5 minutes of the film) I could not stay awake through this totally predictable bore-fest.
Julia Roberts gives a robotic performance here, and a list of incredibly talented actors and actresses are just wasted on a dull, uninspired script. The movie seems so contrived because of the bad direction, either that, or it was supposed to be a satire of "farce films". Either way, I thought this movie sucked.
