Did not, could not, would not, will not....
21 February 2017 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

like this movie. I am sad that a movie with dialogue that includes the f- word in every other sentence is up for awards. There is absolutely no reason for it. It totally ruins a movie for me. I may have been able to overlook this fact but there were no other redeeming qualities to this movie. Not the script, not the acting, not the music. Oh must I go on? I hated it. I can't believe that deadpan Casey Affleck is up for the best actor award. When I compare this movie to a movie like "Fences" with Denzel Washington it is mind boggling and just plain incomprehensible how anything about this movie could be Oscar worthy.
