its over!

Rating: 2/10 (20 February 2015)

it was a struggle to get through this. For the first hour it was nothing but screaming, yelling, and fighting. The second hour was filled with four characters taking turns wallowing in self-pity. The third hour I was screaming and wallowing, please let it end!
I suspect the hype comes from old-timer theatre types who long for their old days at the theatre. There were some shots back stage that made me feel the intensity and excitement of being a stage actor, but sadly those were fleeting moments overshadowed by all of the above.
with that said, I want to add that as a piece of art, the acting and the premise and the plot were all unique and creative. I'm not an artist though. I like movies to escape and to laugh and to cry and to be moved. None of those things happened to me while I was hoping the movie would end sooner than later.
