...the frenetic pace, the humor, all of the absurd parts, but underneath the fun, this movie is just another young adult melodrama, with a bunch of talented actors pushing the emoting up to 11, but around issues that are just petty and banal. The second half, in particular, is just a series of supposedly meaningful dialogue presented with tears and trembling lips. The humor cannot take away from the fact that this movie has nothing to say, really, but takes itself very seriously still. Piling on the allegory does not cover up that the conflicts underneath are just not very interesting or profound. Even Michelle Yeoh was a disappointment.
