most anticipated movie of the year for me.

How is this movie not at the top of this forum with a million comments? HOW? This movie nailed it on so many levels. The music and camera work went beyond brilliance, transcending creativity. Writing, directing, fricking ACTING--out of the park. Movies can sometimes have all these brilliant parts to them but manage to somehow not tie them together with enough cohesiveness. Not here. Movie of the year, no doubt in my mind. I left an hour ago, and I'm still bouncing around with a ton of energy. AMAZING MOVIE!

my expectations were too high.

I thought it was good... a movie I probably need to see again. But for all the talk about keaton, I thought Ed Norton stole every scene he was in.

Norton was amazing, and so was Keaton. Yeah, I'd give the edge to Norton, no doubt, but that's not selling Keaton's work short at all.

Fabulous movie. The hospital scene is a gem, but hell it's all good. All the actors nailed it.

Amazing. The single shots were nothing short of brilliant. I loved it.

Stone, Norton, Keaton, even skinny Galifianakis were all stellar.

 

[Shaggy]

Hmm, might have to see it then.

Fantastic film making, but I hated the last scene.

 

[Southpaw]

I want my 2 hours back.
