Technically great, but not a good movie

Rating: 5/10 (24 December 2019)

It deserves more than one of ten stars, but I feel that the collective rating is misleading, so I try to even things out.
The acting, cinematography, locations, music etc. are great.
But sadly it is just a display if what happens when you give a respected writer/director a massive budget, acquire great actors and just fly away with hubris propelling you with thrust from the derriÃ¨re throughout the production.
It has all the right ingredients, but they are mixed and arranged in a way that I never would have expected from one of my favorite directors.
But for all the great work he has done, I'll let this one slide.
