Can't understand the Buzz...

Rating: 3/10 (20 October 2014)

"The whole movie is predictable, absurd, and comes across as some sort of listless metaphorical commentary on marriage"- a fellow reviewer wrote this here and I back it up 100%. I honestly cannot understand the buzz about this movie... The first part is OK (a really big OK), but then the second part comes with a bunch of loose ends and unexplainable actions taken from the characters, all together with really unnecessary scenes (actually didn't add anything to the history except making it too long) that destroys the entire movie. It's a really good idea that it's not well developed... Actually isn't well written to be fair. Rosamund Pike is not convincing AT ALL and so goes Ben Affleck... Actually the best actor in the movie is Carrie Coon. I have NO IDEA on why David Fincher directed this movie, after masterpieces like Fight Club. I honestly can't.
