The kind of film where, even before sitting down to properly reflect on it, I just know/feel that I loved it. Polskaaaaa <3
Such great acting all round, wow... so so devastating. Thought the constant, sudden cuts between the Sacklers and then the community in West Virginia/ personal stories were really impactful and the jumping back/forth in time was a nice touch. Ultimately leaves you feeling pretty deflated :/
ambition... at what cost?! :/
+ greaat acting (especially andrew)
+ jumping forwards/ backwards in time was done really well
+ focus on the mundane
- car accident was so irrelevant?!
- odd and frequent product/ brand placement
- stark imbalance in character dev :(
presented interesting questions on measuring one's success and how different people want to prove it but, ultimately, felt there wasnt anything particularly special about the film; the storyline was filled with quite a few clichés; and the trailer was certainly more of a tear-jerker.
