    confusing plot. to the point where I fell asleep half way through (which I've never done in a theatre).

    need to re-watch in dub with 8 hours of sleep under my belt.

    ★★★★½

    did not expect to like this. almost skipped it (like i did the favourite), but the hype around it drove me to the theaters.

    excellent acting, over the top (in a good way). emma stone will win an oscar (if performance quality is the measure). ruffalo (who I don't love historically) is doing career-best work here, hilarious performance.
