CGiii Comment

It's just so unconvincing as a serious film - is it a comedy? It certainly feels like it in places. If it is - then, it is truly hysterical. Oooooops.

Bale's performance is plain weird - not in a good way - his delivery has impeccable comic timing and his campness is, frankly, unrivaled.

Memorable for all the wrong reasons.
