Manchester by the Sea

With all the buzz Manchester by the Sea has been getting, I decided to go see for myself what this film is all about. I lasted about 20 minutes before I left and got my money back.

It's very slow to start, very slow, and has lots of use of the "f" word, lots and lots. Casey Affleck is so ... laid back? ... that he's almost catatonic. And not much of the story is revealed in the opening of the film.

My film buddy stayed for the entire film and said it got better, but she can't see what all the hype is about, so I'm saying this movie is one to skip. Despite the hype.
