I never Review things but this one i just had to. I was very excited to see this movie and now i wish there was a way to get back those 2 hours of my life.
The Good first: 1. If you are a classic car buff. the collection of classic cars is just about the best and most well rounded collection i have seen in a currant movie ever. So looking at that keep me going. 2. Im a photographer, and i do have to say the photography was beautiful, angles and art direction. if it was a music video or performance piece 15 mins long of the best clips then AMAZING. but the average person is not going to give a rats ass about that.
The Bad Now if you are even able to stay awake. I dont recommend seeing this movie after a 7pm start time or if you are the least bit tired. You will never be able to survive it. the second challenge you will face is staying to the end. The only way you do that is to play games with your mind that any min this is going to get better - there is going to be a massive plot change or what every trickery you can play with your head to convince yourself to stay to the end.
For me it was just the fact of spending $13 bucks on this and i would be God Damned if i was not going to sit through the whole thing.
I did get the message - but i could have given that message in 10 mins. Sean Penn has about 7 lines in the whole movie so if you are going for him dont bother.
the actually story part. meaning actors speaking lines and mouths moving with words coming out of there mouths does not happen to about and hour in. i did fall asleep a couple times so maybe a missed a line in. But not sure there was more than 100 words to the movie in the first hour.
I could write about this for an hour. But id say you have to be a massive brad pitt fan to see this. or you just like to through away your money. if you are even thinking of it. wait for it to be on netflix you will be in your own house. maybe you can clean the bathroom why you are watching it. At least you will be able to do something productive with the 2 hours.. i was not so lucky i was stuck in that black box of a theater and i just lost 2 hours of my life. thank god i did not get hit by a car on the way home. and that was how i spent the last 2 hours of my life.
