David Cronenberg swaps body horror for toilet humour – among other poor choices – in Maps to the Stars, says MacDara Conroy
"The tone of the film - the empty, emotionally detached, high and mighty preaching - all of this is the film. It’s hard wired into every scene and for the first hour at least, the film cannot escape the weight of its own overblown tone. And what’s more…it’s fucking boring."
