Currently on Netflix. The movie got nearly universal positive professional reviews and scored a 79% audience rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

This movie stars Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe as investigators of the disappearance of somebody named Amelia (Margaret Qualley).

It is very hard to care about anybody in this film as they all pretty much are terrible people. It is practically a farce parade and I kept waiting for someone to care about and any reason to care. Finally after about 60 minutes, I asked my spouse if he was getting into this at all. After about five more minutes he also was in the same space: enough is enough, turn it off.

    I do have a sense of humor, but I do have trouble with liking movies or TV where I have nobody to root for.

      You don’t have to defend yourself. Parent just doesn’t get that not everyone likes the same things.

      I’m in the same boat as you, if I can’t find any redeemable characters, I check out and turn off.
