This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
