This movie obviously is meant to send up shallow celebrity culture and in this regard it's actually quite fun to watch.
But as soon as it starts to take itself too seriously that's when you think 'maybe I'll stop watching here'.
I liked the deliberate hammy acting from all the cast except Nicole Kidman who tries waaaay too hard to be like Jennifer Aniston in this movie, a ditzy, goofy, sexy intellectual. She has no comedic timing and was badly misdirected - one minute giving her familiar American voice then going full Aussie and in one scene not even acting her persona at all, just being regular Nicole. Aesthetically she looks perfect in that Hollywood way so I won't comment on her personal beauty choices.
I made it through to the end and don't think the overall idea itself is bad but the ending was way too cheesy for me.
