I don't usually sit down and watch a whole movie. So to say that this one captivated me and kept me roped in the entire time is something!! Clooney is a great actor and the movie really gets you into his mind. It kept me waiting for something to happen but seemed to be so much wasted time on things that coulda been shortened and not enough time on things that mattered or could have evolved into a better ending. Saw it last night, I never write reviews, but here I am. So this one affected me. I WANTED to like this one so bad. I love the "lone man against the world " storyline. Loved rooting for his success. I was hoping for more loose ends to be tied up and im ok with most movies having a few, but this one had way to many to make my heart/soul happy when I turned off THE TV at the end of the night. And here i am tjis morning looking at what others think to make sure it wasn't me. Ill give it a 3 for keeping me captivated enough to watch the whole thing and leaving me feeling empty. Lol
