I’m a big fan of Maggie Gyllenhall, and I adore almost everything Olivia Colman is in. Sadly this was a giant swing and miss for me. Critics seem to love it, but I just couldn’t get into it; I won’t complain that it was “slow” because I’ve found this year more than any other that I can appreciate a slow burn. I think it just lacked the emotional connection I was hoping for, not for lack of trying, and I hope that many people out there think I’m crazy because of this.<\/p>\n

This film got a pretty low rating from me, but it doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t enjoy it. I try hard to reinforce that as often as I can. I love film; however, I don’t always love what I’m “supposed to.” Sometimes it makes me feel like less of a film fan like maybe I should like things that I don’t only to prove a point. Thankfully I know in my heart that a film fan isn’t based on liking certain films or loving every film a specific director makes. It’s about the love of cinema in general, any genre, any style, just having a passion for the art.<\/p>\n

Olivia Colman did a stellar job acting, as did Dakota Johnson; Johnson surprised me with her range in this. I had only seen a few of her roles before this, and needless to say, they didn’t show off her acting chops like this. I just need it to be known that just because you didn’t love a film doesn’t mean that it was a bad film. I probably love several movies that anyone reading this would hate. That’s what makes the world of film such a unique experience. If every film was the same, every person thought that a movie meant the same thing? Can you imagine how boring cinema would be if we all agreed?<\/p>\n

Overall, I saw a good film in this; I just think it missed the mark for me. The irony is that this had two acting nominations, Colman and Buckley, yet I just finished up “Four Good Days,” which was only nominated for the original song, yet I enjoyed it far more.<\/p>\n
