    Wow that was incredible. A relentless masterpiece, PTA really is that guy.

    I have never seen a film before that so perfectly intertwines so many different stories and characters, and with so many remarkable performances as well, what an insane cast this is.

    It’s unbelievable how much the time flies with this, a 3 hour movie that feels like 90 mins.
