Wonder Wheel is unfortunately a miss as far as I'm concerned. I guess he expected it to be a new Blue Jasmine but it isn't. There is none of that special charm that Blue Jasmine has despite the best efforts of the cast. Especially Kate Winslet is wasted in the part. Sometimes even when an actor is exceptionally talented (such as Winslet) they may not have a good chemistry with the director which I think is the case here. The story is decent, the art direction is very very good and the mood is conveyed well but for some reason that certain cinematic magic is not there.
