"Long and boring with a few good ideas"
29 September 2023
I wanted to see this movie since it came out in 2015, maybe something was bothering me about it (or maybe I had a hunch regarding what it would be so I wasn't in a hurry)... In any case I waited until today to watch it, one of the reasons is that I wanted to be in a good mental state before watching it; for the last 20 years I was in such a depression watching a movie was just plain painful I had huge difficulties concentrating I wasn't enjoying movies at all... Finally I remembered about it today and thought I needed to see it even if only as a courtesy and to get myself an opinion about it, so rented it on Amazon Prime Videos... We need to give to Ceasar what is due to Ceasar, the directing is absolutely flawless it's total perfection, the sets, the filming location in a small town in France , the camera plans... But the story is complete garbage it's worth going to the trash wihout any consideration, in fact I recommend everybody to avoid this piece of garbage at all cost... I started watching it and after some time I realized that I was bored to death, so I checked and I was 15 minuts into the movie, and I realized the only occasion where it caught my attention is when the barman said "...when you really love a woman, you do more for her than for yourself"... I had decided to endure it at least until 45 minutes but after 30 minutes of that I decided I had enough... So I didn't watch it completely but I say avoid this it's a mega waste of time, and if you've seen it and managed to find any entertainment value in it I suggest you don't brag about that and don't tell it to anybody...
