Gripping story with well-crafted characters

I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.

The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
