It's not a BAD film, but then it's not a good film. It's rather pointless and doesn't really have a story (per say). It's a tricky one to really talk about because there is so much that is good about it, it really should be better than it is, but then there is so much wrong with it that it really should be terrible...
But then that just leaves me with no comment on it because i have absolutely no feeling about it at all.
What i can say is that it's FAR to long, some of the acting is good, some of the design is good, some of the direction, editing, etc, is good... Desplats score, however, is Awful and there are distinct hints of BIRTH in there and at one point, inexplicably, the X-Files....
Couldn't care less that it was framed by Hurricane Katrena, maybe thats why it's been nominated for so many awards....
Anyhow, i felt particularly numbed by it and wanted to watch FIGHT CLUB after it immediately to not make me think less of David Fincher.
