A good movie, but I would not call it a comedy. Not even close. I have no idea how it could possibly fit into that genre. It is definitely dramatic, thought provoking, and well made, but it is not funny at all.
Cate Blanchett amazed me with her ability to really become Jasmine. She drew me into the story and almost made me feel like part of her. However, the story is almost depressing. This lady really struggles throughout the film. You root for her, but around almost every corner she is put down as soon as she begins to get ahead.
If you are looking to have your thoughts and emotions tugged around, hoping and caring for a sad woman, this is the film for you.
