You could not watch this movie, but it's better if you do

Rating: 7/10 (4 February 2019)

I'm not gonna lie, I did enjoy this movie. I think the soundtrack fitted perfectly, the dialogue was beautifully written, the characters managed to seem human, deeply flawed but reasonable... The way the time passes keeps you up on your feet, and the performances were just as amazing. It came across, at least to me, as a quite believable and unpredictable plot. However, it doesn't fulfill my expectations.
Maybe I should have seen this movie knowing that other's people's praise for it would be ruining my own experience, but that didn't happen. I've seen people naming this film as one of the ones that shaped them as a person, I've heard albums that, now that I've seen the movie, seem completely extracted from it. Perhaps this is how I've taken the most out of this film, by seeing and enjoying art that derived from it, and therefore this movie, even if in itself came as a disappointment to me, did mark me quite a lot.
But did I love it? Does the effect it already had in my life balance out the lack of it the experience of watching brought to me? Probably not. Maybe this is a problem that not many people will have with this movie, so you probably will be alright and will enjoy it as long as you can appreciate good cinematography without needing a mind blowing plot. But it didn't work that well for me.
