Two Hours Wasted

Rating: 1/10 (7 February 2016)

Well that is two hours of my life I won't get back.
I understand that there is such a thing as an "artful" film, and don't get me wrong, there are many I enjoy. But this is not one of them. This is one that is packed with star power to draw you in, but doesn't deliver on its promise.
Although he is not well known, I recognized the face of Paul Dano and was excited to see him in it - that it might be a meaty role for him. I suppose his, and indeed, most, of the roles were well acted, but it's like putting lipstick on a pig - it's still a pig.
Dull, slow moving, contrived, stultifying. If you're forced to see it, have a double espresso beforehand - otherwise, it will be like taking an Ambien.
