Just watched this myself and...
>It alright.
Yeah, best way to sum it up. Not super fun or enthralling, but still not a bad watch.
>It not subtle or nuanced.
No. But the messages that are made very clear are still good messages, and it does dodge a fair amount of cliches or directions you think the film is going to go.
It's style is ugly, but clearly very intentional and very fitting seeing how this is an adaption of a Roald Dahl book.
Verdict: Eh, if you got time to kill, I don't see why not.
