Actually, I think he was a weird mixture of too pretty and too funny/goofy. Had he come around later, he would have been a Chris Pratt (which he basically already was if you compare Mummy and Jurassic World). If there was a time machine or something that could make him 30 again, I think he would have had a bigger career now. His humor and looks could literally be used in any current, big franchise.

that's unfair. I didn't care too much for the script (it was ok though), but everything else was on point. From the directing, which is usually hard to even tell, down to the set design

It's "overrated" (kinda hate that term) but hating on it just because everybody loves it, that's just being contrarian

-e- that being said, without having watched Mother and Noah, it's the weakest film of aronofsky I've seen. But that doesn't mean much.

it's good, but honestly I expected a bit more from aronofsky. For something that was adapted from a play, it had a pretty mediocre script IMHO

Definitely amazing perfomances from every actor involved (they had to be for this movie, and if I remember correctly, it was VERY carefully cast, and they rehearsed the whole movie for like a week or something before actually shooting), and all the other stuff was great as well, just the writing didn't really work for me

Good movie overall though, worth a watch. Kinda depressing, but in the "catharsis at the end"-kinda way if that makes sense lol
