My most reactionary opinion of the year is that The French Dispatch is a delightful confection. If you accept that it's not a movie about the New York but rather about the idea of the New Yorker (or the mythos of The New Yorker) much of the animus against the movie becomes moot

I think the difficulty of this movie is that to really get it, you need to know New Yorker and France well. I only know France, know I missed a lot, thought what I got was delightful. And one of the purest (almost painfully so) representation of France I've ever seen.

Yeah, it's definitely a movie that it helps to have some affinity for and knowledge about the subject. That might be a problem.
