What A Wild Journey! I Don't Understand All Of The Bad Reviews

Rating: 8/10 (13 September 2015)

I have put off watching this film for a while now due to the films run time, i can often get restless if a film goes on for over two hours. I'm glad i decided to watch it at home instead of at the cinema but the run time actually didn't bother me as i was too wrapped up in the story unfolding on screen. I had unfortunately previously had many of the plot points already spoiled for me so nothing came as a shock, maybe it is because i knew what to expect that i could just enjoy the film for the entertaining ride that it is and maybe that's why i managed to not get mad at the possible plot holes? Don't get me wrong there are certain moments that annoyed me because i found them unbelievable but it didn't spoil my enjoyment of the film as a whole. I also wish that the film had ended better but maybe it ended the same way as the book ended? I have still to read it. I thought that all of the acting in this film was superb and i thought David Fincher did a great job of bringing the film together, i am a big fan of Fincher's style and once again for me he didn't disappoint. I'm now looking forward to reading Gillian Flynn's book so that i can compare the two.
