It's not real. It's the movies.

Beyond the Sea - 6/10. Has no idea what it wants to be. Starts off almost deconstructionist, but that very quickly turns into a gimmick turns into a flight-of-fancy musical turns into a this-happens-and-then-this-happens chain of events straight-faced biopic. It can't figure itself out and so leaves us without a sense of who he is. Maybe that's the point. I don't know.
