Every so often, there is a movie that you don't want to see, but every critic you follow says it's good and has it on their top 10, or 5 list for the year. So you choose to open your mind and try something you don't think you will like, because first impressions are often wrong.
My gut was right. Banshees of Inisherin was pointless, uninteresting and a waste of time, if you like it, I'm happy for you. If you see the trailer and think that looks good, it will be, the trailer is very tonally accurate. I kept telling myself "get on with it" and it just ends. No resolution, sort of a Greek tragedy but here, unlike most Greek Tragedies there is nothing worth walking away with. I gave it 4/10 because the acting, cinematography, production were all very strong.
There were some funny moments and I laughed 3-4 times, but everyone is just sad and frustrated at everyone else.
