  Dull as dishwater
  
  Although visually stimulating due to so many good looking cast members, I found it a real struggle to keep my eyes open for this lot of tosh. Dull, dull and ... read more »

  Move your mouse off the rent button and stand back...
  
  ...and nobody will get hurt. Order it and you will be watching one of the worst films ever made. The high point is Julia Rogers and she's in a sub-plot and ... read more »

  A quick reminder that it takes more than an A-list cast and lots of money to make a good movie.

  Dull and fairly uninteresting. Has dated quickly and badly. See the far superior 'short Cuts' for a mish mash of tales.

  This is without doubt the worst film I have ever seen. The best thing in it is the little dog who keeps pooping everywhere (that must be his review!!!)

  Not a good look
  
  You'd think that if anyone was well suited to a lids-off expose of the superficialities of the fashion world, then Altman would be your man. Sadly, this is ... read more »

  Paris, shoes and gay men.
  
  An asthetically pleasing mix of emaciated women, cross dressers and the news hungry press. Story line, I'm sure there was one in there somewhere, but it ... read more »

  boring
  
  Unless you are interested in fashion, it is waste of time. There is a lot of famous celebrities, but that is all. No story, but documentary about fashion.
