CGiii Comment

Not quite sure as to why this was even considered for production - getting the green light and ensnaring Streep is beyond comprehension.

It is devoid of meaning and emotion.

A stale story with limited appeal.

Being well-made does not make up for its utter irrelevance.

Bewilderingly bad.
