Great Acting! No Meaning.
9 December 2013
The way this movie started had me looking over at my friend with big eyes and a grin. Full of anticipation! The movie then begins to develop characters, quite well. But slowly, you start to realize that the character relationships that are building have ZERO relevance to the film.

The entire cast does a fantastic job of acting and revealing raw emotion, particularly Christian Bale and Casey Affleck in moments of extreme vulnerability.

My discontent with the film lies in the feeling that overcame me at the end of the movie: Pointlessness.

The entire movie creates relationships that don't matter, have no relevance and end abruptly. All-in-all, I wish this movie would've been like the intro. Wait for Redbox.
