“Blonde” (*1/2 out of four) was a superficial (and superfluous) fictionalized biopic of the legendary Marilyn Monroe (Ana de Armas) from her impoverished beginnings as Norma Jean Baker with her volatile parents (Julianne Nicholson and Tygh Runyan) to her various sexual escapades with playwrights and athletes (Adrian Brody, Bobby Cannavale, and others) later in life to her untimely death. Film goes on forever and bombards you with so much numbing detail about her life but tells you absolutely nothing you likely don’t know about her. De Armas looks a little like Monroe and tries her best but is hamstrung by film’s shortcomings that give her almost no character to play.
