I’d say it’s a good thing if a character can draw a strong reaction from the viewer

So you love Jar Jar Binks?

No, no, no...a bad character can be over-bearing...and Stone is way over-bearing in taking over this movie.

When you hate a character, you don't want them to dominate...part and parcel...a little bit here, set the stage...but fricking Ginger takes over a great movie in the 2nd Act and she's the worst part of the movie.

Lets get rid of this sideshow of marital dysfunction and get back to running the Casino and the wiseguys back home.

She's important to the film but the entire 2nd half is mostly her bullshite that nobody cares about. Who cares that she was a whore feeding her old junkie boyfriend, that shite is boring.
