My review
Saw this movie because I saw I got it recommended a few times.
Obviously the message of this movie is a really important one, however sadly it does not translate into a good movie for me in this case.
It actually baffles me that this movie won best screenplay at the Oscars. The writing was mediocre and the ending felt very anti-climax.
Actually kept waiting for the movie to get better (my god the pharmacy scene was so cringy), and then got even more disappointed by the end.
Conclusion
Absolutely not my thing, yet the message it tells is very important.
5/10
Deleted the movie, will not re-watch.
