Disturbing and completely stupid - don't waste your time on this mind numbing stupidity. Read a book instead!

A dreary film. Written for middle-aged menopausal women with a predictable script. A waste of 2 hours of my life. Not even one second on tension or intrigue.

The Academy nominates this after school special for Best Picture along with its not ready for film school graduation director when there were so many more accomplished films snubbed as well as masters like Steven Spielberg and Ridley Scott.The Academy nominates this after school special for Best Picture along with its not ready for film school graduation director when there were so many more accomplished films snubbed as well as masters like Steven Spielberg and Ridley Scott. What a disgrace!
Though the acting is fine, however nothing so exceptional, the movie to its greatest detriment suffers from poor structure which absolutely minimizes its emotional impact. A good director would have restructured the novel. Instead this neophyte stays faithful because he has no balls. The cheap video look chosen delivers a made for TV movie (not the good kind), and even worse are the quick news style zooms which is the first thing a total amateur does in trying to make a film; or what many veterans do under the total fallacy that it makes the audience believe in the reality on screen more. I saw a phony let's play make believe production from start to finish. And so much has been made of the movie's limited locations and the difficulty in crafting a compelling story within such confines. Firstly, that is misleading to what is actually the case here. Secondly, this little movie was of course infinitely easier to make than so much other grander, more logistically difficult fare was. That's a fact.

Boycott the Oscars not for lack of diversity (an absurd lie by the left, the record of their choices over the many years clearly speaks for itself), but for sheer incompetence in shamelessly falling for sucker content over actual quality of movie-making.… Expand
