I love the late 30s (it was filmed to be in 1939- they to go Radio City and Wizard of Oz is playing) so I really liked the film for its style. After just returning from the RNC, it was fun to see pieces of New York again and I actually knew what they were talking about in some places.

They had another Oz homage as well -- there was definitely a "great and powerful Oz" moment when the electrical "zappers" formed a giant image of the bad guy's head and it started talking to them. I half expected a "pay no attention to the man behind the curtain" followup.
