The film

Long-buried wounds rise to the surface when iconic pop star Mother Mary reunites with her estranged best friend and former costume designer Sam Anselm on the eve of her comeback performance.

The Real Review

The reception is split, mostly on the strength of Anne Hathaway's performance as the iconic pop star Mother Mary, with many saying she's the best part. People find the story about her reunion with costume designer Sam Anselm, played well by Michaela Coel, to be predictable and frustratingly thin, with a vocal few calling the pacing a disaster. Visually, it's stunning, which helps, but the plot leaves too many feeling like they've seen it all before.
