Tom's a quiet, down-to-earth college student who usually keeps to himself. But when he's recruited by a group of debutantes (a wealthy clique short on male escorts for Yuletide season pageants) he winds up a regular deb date. Before long, Tom's tight with this haughty crew and finds himself fascinated by their erudite conversations, posh lifestyle and impeccable taste. (official distributor synopsis)

While the script of Metropolitan is definitely very well written and has moments that are great, and even though the dialogue isn't boring, somehow I just couldn't get into the film overall, as if I somehow just disliked all the characters that are presented and didn't enjoy watching them.
