About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a sexy, messy look at nightlife excess, ambition, and the lure of exclusivity, with a strong sense of era; Not for you if you dislike drug-fueled drama or familiar cautionary arcs like The Dirt.
Pros: flashy disco atmosphere; energetic party vibe; memorable club owner | Cons: uneven storytelling; shallow character depth; familiar rise-and-fall arc
