An hour and a half in, I couldn't believe how bored I was. Sex, drugs, general debauchery, yes, we get it. Maybe if you're going after the 18-24 male demographic it makes sense, but for people wanting a film with a plot line, it is excessive. A half hour would have gotten the point across just as well. Had we not known it was up for an Oscar, we might have just walked out at that point, but we figured that it must improve at some point. Right after my husband and I were whispering about how shockingly bored we were, the plot line finally moved on, and it was OK from there. The acting is all first-rate. Can't believe that it is up for an Oscar though; it's a good hour too long.
