    ★★★★

    I really couldn’t explain this movie to someone who hasn’t seen it. 

    Philip Seymour Hoffman gives maybe the best acting performance I’ve ever seen in a movie, this movie also has literally some of the gorgeous shots I’ve ever seen. That is obviously incredibly high praise, but those two elements were the only great parts about the movie.

    I would rather watch the emoji movie three times in a row.
