Kim Pook (101 KP) rated Revolutionary Road (2008) in Movies
May 1, 2021
First off, the acting in this movie is fantastic but that's a given as they were brill in Titanic. The storyline itself though, I found pretty boring, it just didn't feel like there was much of a storyline other than the story of a couple in a loveless marriage, and it wasn't interesting enough to keep me engaged. It's one of those movies I can recommend for a good performance, but I can't recommend it for its story sadly.
