Worth a rental.

Rating: 5/10 (28 December 2017)

This movie is worth a rental if one is interested in a non-mainstream movie.
PROS: I appreciate a major studio (here Paramount Pictures) releasing a non-mainstream movie. I also liked Darren Aronofsky's unique vision (I thoroughly enjoyed his prior films "Requiem for a Dream" and "Pi" )." Jennifer Lawrence does some great acting.
CONS: I routinely read spoilers prior to seeing a film. Like so many others, I am just too busy to able to spend >4 hours per week watching movies. IMO, a characteristic of a great film is one that will keep my interest despite my knowing its story. I have seen "Godfather I" and "Heat" too numerous to count times despite knowing the complete story. Well this one bored me in few portions. Overall the allegory is ok; maybe too much symbolism for me to understand. Jennifer Lawrence is limited to just few emotions or actions. The movie on blu ray is grainy and lacks in details and picture is very "soft." I realize this was intention of the director but to have sub-DVD level detail was frustrating on a large home theater screen. The special feature segments shot in HD were far superior with respect to detail level.
