"Ah! Well, again, Sofia [Coppola] did an amazing transcription of the book, and again, Jeffrey Eugenides had never allowed anyone to do it because he was never satisfied with the film script. Sofia did that one on spec, really — she had no guarantee."

"It buries you in the aesthetic of the blue collar steel-town life. Cimino took a script about Russian roulette in Las Vegas and relocated it to Vietnam, and, though historically inaccurate, he created an allegory that perfectly explained the nature of war."

"John Logan's stunning play about Mark Rothko testing and teaching his young assistant resulted in one of the best evenings I have ever had in the theatre. I keep the script on my iPad to dip into for inspiration and lessons of conviction."

Wow. This was an amazing film. Probably one of my favorite Nolan movies of all time. I think this would rank third in my rankings of Nolan films. Beautifully shot, an amazing score and script, and excellent acting! I absolutely loved it.

Over produced
Bad script
Obvious from the outset
So I understand this is James D'Arcys debut film. The setting was stunning and I liked the general plot, despite it being very obvious.

The reveal of one of the main plot points was done dismissively and quickly. The actors and actresses did well in their roles but the script was poor.

Time was spent on stupid cinematography rather than developing character e.g. there's an eating scene where the camera switches between the characters for far too long, this adds very little to the plot.
