Beautiful and irritating

Rating: 4/10 (25 November 2016)

What a beautiful story. Different than any other movie I have ever seen. The story unfolds and surprises and makes you wonder all the time what is happening. The actors are doing a great job. However, when for 80% of the time I am looking at 95% of the screen being out of focus I am not happy. The movie has no light, everything is gray and with the only focus being on the back of the head of Amy Adams that does not work well for me. There must be other ways to tell a story in a movie than by blurring the entire screen. The story and acting are overwhelmed by the irritations and disappointment. After ten minutes in the movie I really wondered if I should walk out and forget about it. The story line kept me in.
