SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

It is a performances centric movie

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
