How sad is this?

Good concept, poorly executed.

One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
