So like, you enjoyed how the movie did absolutely nothing, went absolutely nowhere, and offered absolutely zero insight into any of the characters thoughts motives for almost two hours, and then they did that whole thing that they clearly tried to base the entire movie around? And you liked how Brad Pitt just played the same character he does in every movie? You liked all of that? Are you sure? Did we watch the same movie?
John said:Sorry, I should say the same character he does in every movie he’s just doing a character. There’s Brad Pitt’s fantastic character roles (12 Monkeys, True Romance, Snatch) and Brad Pitt just being random-charming-guy (Oceans ##, Benjamin Button, Mr & Mrs. Smith). Jesse James falls into the latter.
Maybe you are thinking of a different movie. He’s hardly charming as Jesse James. Dark, menacing, and paranoid would be a much better description. He’s really good in it, as is Casey Affleck (for once).
