Review of Sweet Smell of Success (1957) by Chris L — 26 Jun 2018
Uggghhhhh! Hated the script particularly, but overall the whole movie was annoying. The acting was either blank or excessive. The storyline was fairly confusing with multiple different character names and no English subtitles even tho the actors all talked way too fast.
Why the hell was JJ so obsessed with his sister? I kept finding questions but no answers in this film. The dialogue is so dated that what I could make out doesn't even make much sense. So overrated.
I usually love noir but this was a piece of melodramatic crap.
