The trailer intrigued me, the reviews convinced me.
And now I've watched it, I don't understand the high rating and the number of 9 and 10 star reviews.
Whilst it wasn't awful, it was just slow, pretentious, bleak and depressing. Some incredible films have been bleak and depressing, but it didn't feel like this hit the mark or that it was even the intended feeling.
The acting was brilliant, but the storyline was simply a good idea which was never built on and could have made a good short-film.
I'm a big softie with films, but I've been moved way more by some basic, paint by numbers Rom-Coms.
No spoilers here, although it would be very easy to sum up the entire storyline and one thread in a few words.
