I was surprised by the bad performances from the great actors in this movie. It's probably because the story is so boring and slow. I don't recommend seeing this movie.

An okay story with great actors, but the characters are one dimensional. This movie was flat, it wasn't visual or deep or anything. It wasn't very good is what I'm trying to say, but it wasn't really bad either, I wouldn't recommend seeing it.
