Some scenes are just disgusting. Twisted story line.
Really good movie, thought-provoking and sad. Bring your Kleenex, because Amy Adams is so hot.
Pretty stupid, I thought.
What a movie! Two endings. All about revenge, the book is one ending the movie is the other, the book was his life as he felt it, the movie was his reality, the opposite of love is indifference, he doesn't show as he doesn't care,REVENGE, for ending the marriage and aborting his child, great acting, but it is an intellectual movie. Be advised
Waste of time
Awesome movie
Besides the opening credits it was pretty good very intense it had the intensity of no country for old men and the mystery of the girl on the train
Two stars was a stretch. Stupid movie.
Very slow and boring. Too many loose ends and no feeling of a real ending. Weak plot that leads nowhere.
Actually 3 1/2 if I could do that here. I read the book around Halloween before finding out there was a movie coming soon. This is a story (and story within a story) about wasted lives and blown chances and, admittedly, not an easy watch, but the movie fills out the "outer" story considerably. The result is one of those rare instances where the movie is better than the book.
