Very good movie, but soooooooooo long...........

Rating: 8/10 (1 January 2014)

Yeah, I know: No GOOD movie can be too long,and no BAD movie can be too short, but............
Film about 2 hours, 40 minutes long. Off the top of my head, I can see where at LEAST 30 minutes could have been cut, without it effecting the flick what so ever.
Seems like every sex scene, and there are many, is drawn out way too long. A shot with LD staggering out of the country club last around ten minutes, when about 30 SECONDS would have worked just as well.
A lot of useless dialogue was used which contributes NOTHING to the plot, pointless crap abounds, etc.
Never before have I looked at my watch so much during a good movie. Shame, cause acting was first rate all the way around.
Very good picture, though, just don't make any plans afterward.
