Chroma noise in a major motion picture production IS THIS A JOKE?

Rating: 1/10 (9 April 2015)

How the everliving hell does a production fail so spectacularly that members of the film crew cranked the ISO up on their cameras to the point where every shot they took is ruined by massive amounts of noise and no one at any stage notices?
This is beyond pathetic, such a failure of basic technical ability deserves ridicule if found in youtube videos but that Russel Crowe would be guilty of such an amateurish pratfall in his dramatic directorial debut is woeful and shocking.
This is a crime so basic and unforgivable that as soon as it became clear it wasn't just an isolated mistake but a recurring nuisance I immediately ejected the disc and threw it in the trash WHERE IT BELONGS.
