Glossy and indulgent. The wealth porn is galling, it has three scenes for every one that is essential. There’s one sequence set around a hotel elevator that seems to go on longer than the entire original film. Still little Li-Lo has the goods – charm, strong comic timing… even when playing against herself. She single handedly makes this the superior version.
