Actually, that's not quite true, since I went to bed rather than bother with the last 40 minutes of meandering, inconsequential tedium.
Avoid.

Maybe I'll send it back.
Most of Richard Linklater's films are the same. Boring, self-involved people wittering on
endlessly. Tried to watch Before Sunrise a while back and had to turn it off as the smug hipsters were causing me to reach for my revolver.
I will make an exception for School of Rock, which is excellent and Dazed and Confused, which is at least entertaining.
Otherwise, he's ****.
Whatsoever, there is something I quite like about that. Not much escapism though.
Must you poo upon everything which I hold dear?
Still, at least the fact you hold School of Rock up as some sort of example invalidates any points you make.
Slacker, Dazed and Confused, seminal films of the 90s imo
I guess you're just unhappy about your unsympathetic portrayal in your biopic, Bernie.
Seminal he may be. Doesn't mean that his influence is a good one, though. His films are full of people with nothing to say saying it at great and tedious length.
I like the character studies, the tableau approach and I don't think films are there just to be entertaining. If you want "entertaining" just watch some mindless blockbusters where huge robots kick **** out of each other.
I like Linklater, I'm pleased that he's back trying to do interesting stuff.
and undramatic series of events. I don't need to watch a film to do that.
So any film director who is entertaining must be Michael Bay?
That's phenomenally reductive and f**kwitted, j. You're better than that.
