Not for me

Rating: 5/10 (10 March 2018)

If I had to describe this movie in one word, it would probably be "pretentious." But one word doesn't do a movie like this justice as there are many elements that I found to be of high quality. Chalamet's acting is superb. He was nominated for an Oscar for good reason. And while I found the script to be overly long and rambling at times, I can see how some people would enjoy it. And the visuals were beautiful. But even with all that, I found myself bored, checking my watch every few minutes in hopes that I was approaching the end. Perhaps I was just in the wrong frame of mind to watch this, but I had a hard time appreciating the positives because of the way the movie dragged. I'm glad other people are enjoying it.
