Still not sure

Rating: 8/10 (16 January 2017)

I had high expectations of this film. Now I've seen it I'm just not sure what to make of it. It's starts off as a slow burner and continues to smolder for an hour before picking up the pace for a conclusion that delivers a number of outcomes.
The protagonists are largely there to help deliver the story without overwhelming the central narrative, although on a few occasions they do intervene directly to provide direction and context.
The story itself is well delivered and the supporting cast do just that, they support the central character through a journey which is both sweet and overwhelmingly bitter.
Whatever score you might grant this film it's worth seeing. I'm not sure how many repeated viewings it can sustain, but I'll be watching it at least one more time to fill in the gaps or perhaps I already have ?
