warren beatty seems like such a natural choice to play howard hughes in a film that it's shocking to realize he hadn't done so before 2016. now that we've seen the result, it probably would have been better off if it had never happened. beatty, one of the great movie stars of all-time, had been away from films for several years before writing, directing and starring in this tale about a young man and an actress who fall in love in hughes' shadow. to say that just about everything went wrong here is an understatement. to start with, while alden ehrenreich and lily collins are fine actors (and, in fact, their performances one of the few good things about this film), their characters are paper-thin and not particularly interesting. the romance between the two and the complication hughes throws in the way are supposed to be the primary plotline here, and there isn't anything compelling about it. as both writer and director, beatty tries to give this an old hollywood feel but comes off more stilted than gilded and the muddled narrative can't decide whether to devote itself to the lovers or to the relationship ehrenreich's frank has with hughes. the result is that neither arc is compelling in any meaningful way.
it doesn't help that the film seems either bloated or too thin thanks to a pacing that starts and stops so many times it's liable to give people whiplash. there is no rhythm to the storyline, unevenly lurching between its two arcs right when you're starting to get invested in one or the other. beatty is a fine howard hughes and he's directed good films before, but he has no idea what to do here and both arcs feel incomplete to the point that one should have been cut down severely or both should have been expanded. a film about old hollywood should have appealed to me in a big way, but this was one of the most boring and frustrating mainstream film-watching experiences of the year for me.
