It was awful

Too long and boring. the story was very disconnected. in fact, there was hardly a believable story. many scenes were extremely disjointed. it didn't allow you to get attached to any of the characters. it was so hard to follow that I just wanted to leave the theatre. I was frustrated. Damon's robotic acting was dry and depressing and was not believable. We go to see a film to be entertained. We didn't want to have to sit there and have to try so hard to connect the numerous subtle transitions in each scene. You were constantly left one step behind to make the connections. And as soon as you did make the connection, many of them were scenes unnecessary to the film. they were stupid connections...many of which were not relevant to the weak story line. For instances, Damon and Joile had a one night stand. She gets pregnant. Her brother tells Damon "you'll do the right thing." OK, shotgun wedding, loveless marriage. They don't see each other. they both have affairs. the scene with Joile showing all that emotion over seeing the pictures of his secretive affair that she claimed humiliated her,was stupid. i didn't connect with that at all. it didn't add any value to the film. There was no scene to connect you with the son falling in love. So, I absolutely cared less about them throwing her out of the airplane and I didn't feel for the son's loss at all,or anything or anybody else. OH, I GET IT. THE DIRECTOR WANTED US TO NOT FEEL ANYTHING IN THIS FILM... NOT THAT'S BRILLIANT!
