Empty experience

Rating: 1/10 (29 March 2019)

I do not care for the protagonist. He is not likeable, and he is not interesting. And because of this, everything that happens in this looooooong and tedious film becomes an unrewarding experience. I was not moved by any of this. I neither cheered nor booed. I didn't feel any moral lesson of any importance going on. Just a lazy script that, when it's reduced to its basic elements, isn't anything remarkable. And that creepy priest guy... If there ever was an example of overacting, here it is. Now, the actor playing the main role did a great job. He's a good actor, he actually made the whole thing at least watchable. Then again, I think his character is rather monotone. Let's not kid ourselves. This film is a bloated bag of hot air. It's meant to LOOK like something big, but not actually be something big.
