5/10
Just finished watching Being the Ricardos on Prime. Written and directed by Aaron Sorkin, the film stars Nicole Kidman as Lucille Ball. Kidman is great, but the film is a joyless, unfocused mess that falls surprisingly flat. There is too much going on and most of it doesn't work. I didn't like the screenplay and the film is lacking a spark. Kidman carries the film and manages to elevate it somewhat, but even she can't save it. Kidman deserves an Oscar nod, but the film shouldn't get any other nominations,in my opinion. Disappointing, a 5/10 from me.
