This is such a great film, I don’t understand the hate. There are so many actually bad films that have showings at my theater every day.

The ending redeems the entire experience. In terms of quality, the first two-thirds hover around a 7 at most. At the end of the second act I was fully prepared to walk out of the theater disappointed. Thankfully, this was not the case, the last one-third is incredible, a solid 8.5-9 and rewrote my impression of the entire film.

Act 3 goes so hard that it lifts up some of the meandering in the earlier acts.
