House of Gucci

"As Paolo Gucci would say, and indeed did wail, mid-way through the movie, "Why-ah? Why-ah? Why-ah?""

"Ridley Scott’s fantastically rackety, messy soap opera... is rescued from pure silliness by Lady Gaga’s glorious performance..."

"A trashtacular watch that I wouldn't have missed for the world."

"It's full of luscious backstabbing, but it's not camp."

"It is stupidly watchable."

"Like next year's fashions from a more extreme house, it grows on you."

"The fact that the major cast members can't seem to agree on what kind of film they're actually making is one of its most glaring hitches - and also one of its ripest pleasures."

"An infectious, bizarro bit of fun."

"At 83... Scott is not just at the height of his powers, he's breaking new ground."

"It is, at times, nakedly and bewilderingly bad - but you have to admire Scott's energy."

"Say this for House of Gucci, it announces its basic silliness right off the bat."

"Insistently campy yet painfully mirthless..."

"A tragi-comic triumph of operatic proportions."

"(House of Gucci) never finds a rhythm, vacillating between a gauche, on-the-nose satire, and a superficial, surface-level biography."

"A titillating, ridiculous and utterly engrossing soap opera."

"A jumble of stories jockeying for screen time..."

"Curiously drab..."

"Entertaining, provided you can look past whatever Leto is doing."

"A feast of enjoyable scheming, OTT performances and terrible accents..."
