Painfully exhausting

Could have seriously spent 2.5 hrs of my life elsewhere... The movie was one of the slowest movies that I have seen with a lot of redundant parts excruciatingly inserted in it. I found it painfully exhausting and after 2 hours couldn't resist opening my eyes.
This movie is part of a genre which urges all viewers to view it from a certain defined perspective without having itself carefully constructed that perspective prior to the commencement of the actual plot. The director and actors assume that irrespective of whatever your taste you'll somehow comprehend their narrowly defined perspective, and view the movie a certain way. With the intent to appeal to a particular cult of movie-goers, the movie team does not do justice while elucidating or construing their desired perspective to appeal to ALL audience types. As such, for a normal viewer, the movie might appear increasingly bland and exhausting unless he/she adheres to that extraordinary perspective envisaged by the proponents if this movie. For a viewer like me, excluding certain parts and themes, I wouldn't be able to differentiate between this movie and a documentary "Richard Attenborough's- life of a Northern explorer".
While the acting was good, I would not describe it as being out of this world. I admired Leonardo's perseverance but it was not in anyway unprecedented and did not enthrall me. Tom Hardy's accent is very hard to understand, especially if you are not American, and sounds almost nonsensical and superfluous in many parts of the movie.
The only elements I truly appreciated were the themes associated with atrocities towards native Americans and the well captured natural sceneries. But again, this does not in itself make a movie extraordinary.I will never be watching this movie again in my lifetime..
