Imagine this production meeting. "We have a great script, actors and story. Now all we need is a director who is incompetent and can really mess this up."
Based on that criteria, this film is a huge success. They found a director with a wealthy and privileged upbringing, one who leveraged his connections to get the job, and created a bloated, boring, pretentious mess.
Normally, this is when I say something like "despite, there are a few poignant or funny moments." But there isn't. Skip and move on.
