This was the first Olivia Coleman vehicle I have disliked. Really. An homage to a severely narcissistic woman. Do we need more of this sort of thing? Without getting into the limited plot, I will say that wasting Ms. Coleman and Ed Harris on this production was a shame. Ms. Gyllenhaal. Has stayed far from her wondrous Netflix production, The Deuce. Perhaps this film reflects one of the great flaws of modern feminism: The elevation of insanity and selfishness to normalcy, tinted with pathos. Perhaps it was simply too mundane a story for the big screen.

This movie almost put me to sleep. If it wasn't for the little kids crying every 10 minutes it definitely would of knocked me out. I don't understand why people love this film. I thought it was extremely boring. I ended up turning it off half way through. And why are so many people praising Olivia Colman's performance? She pretty much just mopes around awkwardly staring at people. What's so brilliant about that. 4 stars.

It is hard to stop watching this movie but I am not sure I can say I liked it. It caught my attention because of the stellar critic reviews and the setting, Greece. The film is well done. It is well acted. Olivia Colman, Dakota Johnson, and Ed Harris, among others are very engaging was the story of a deeply troubled woman on summer holiday in Greece unfolds. This is not a big, over the top movie, but it is not simple. Colman, is by definition, an unreliable narrator. While we learn a lot about her past and her troubles we have great difficultly understanding what is truth and what is illusion-I think the line is blurred. We also have a great difficulty understanding why Colman is the way she is, and maybe that isn't relevant to the story; however, I felt myself desiring to know more about what she was feeling and thinking. Perhaps reading the source material would enlighten me. Perhaps it would not. Regardless, the movie's performances and direction moved me but, in the end, I felt unsatisfied.
