Review of S1m0ne (2002) by Rick Groen for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) — 06 Jun 2014
If this is satire, it's the smug and self-congratulatory kind that lets the audience completely off the hook. Effective satire, the Swiftian brand, seduces us first and then implicates us in the seduction -- we become a target too.
But this stuff never gets past the initial step -- it's toothless, as innocuous as the puffery it pretends to skewer.
