How very disappointing. There was no compassion in the acting building no bond or emotion. High emotion was only achieved by the use of highly dramatic loud music. The continuity was extremely poor and the story well, was there one. I can only conclude that the people who really like this are connected to the Oscar academy committee or the film Institute. I'm not sure how the IMDB Calculator works but if they are adding up the scores properly this should not have an overall rating of more than five. It's two hours of your life you will never get back on a film that is too self-indulgent. I like Sam Mendes but I'm not related to him so it's best to tell the truth.
