733821, I was surprised at how much I disliked this. Posted by will_5198, Mon Mar-04-19 09:57 PM
I'm definitely a fan of Chandor -- Margin Call is a modern classic that gets better with each viewing, and All is Lost is worthwhile -- but this one never came together for me.
I didn't think there was a clear vision for everything, like the aforementioned films. it wanted to go in a lot of directions and never went far enough in any of them. pacing was off, too, or maybe that was just me being disinterested.
this was mostly a reminder that Oscar Isaac is a "worth the price of admission" actor.
