Unless it has about a 90% on rottentomatoes and metacritic, I'm not seeing it in theaters. I don't like Luhrmann at all, and it looks like he Luhrmanned this one up pretty badly.
So... 2/10 excitement level. Any movie Leo is in is good for 3 points minimum, but any movie Maguire is in is good for -1 points minimum. Hence why I think Cider House Rules and Wonder Boys are cinematic marvels
Well friggin' said, and though I don't have any particular distaste for Luhrmann, I do look at his works with suspicion.

What does a Carey Mulligan get? If Maguire is a -1, she's got to be a -.5.
I actually like Carey Mulligan but I don't think I'd go see a movie with her in it just because she's in it. So she's neutral.
With Leo, I'm immediately intrigued. There are very few movies of his, if any, that I haven't at least liked. So he gives the movie a +3.
Maguire is the opposite. There are very few movies of his that I have liked, with the notable exceptions of Cider House Rules and Wonder Boys. So he gets a -1. And frankly, Wonder Boys is the perfect role for Maguire, who seems socially awkward/inept, just like his character. But that movie was carried by Douglas, RDJ, and McDormand, just like Cider House Rules was carried by Michael Caine.
Before Spiderman, I was very neutral on Maguire, but his turn as Peter Parker has to warrant at least a -1. Good God, he was terrible.
