No denying that Pitt was pretty good in it in any case.

Actually, one of the bigger problems I had with it was that it felt like a masturbatory "look-at-me-I-can-act" vanity piece for Pitt. I'm not sure how fair that is to Gray or Pitt, but at the end of the movie, that's kind of how I felt about it, looking back on it.

I enjoyed this film and have seen it twice on HBO. The main character knowing he was a bit of a fuck up was funny because well, yeah...he fucked up a lot in this. And the ending was..whatever. lol But I still found myself entertained. I like a lot of "slow burn" stuff with a great score and nice visuals so this fit that. I also liked Pitt's voice over.

This film absolutely fell flat imo. Almost didn't make it through it the first time and no way would I ever waste time re-watching it. Shame because I typically really enjoy Brad Pitt movies.

Just saw this through FXM on demand.
1. I love astronomy. I watched the whole film.
2. This movie is incredibly boring! I cant believe a screenplay was written, the studio thought it was entertaining enough to pick up, and the final product was satisfactory for everyone involved. Wow, so so so boring.
This movie has no parallel plots. The viewer just follows Brad Pitt throughout the whole film. Ridiculous.
