I hate to pull a KingofOldSchool and be an asshole, but:

I didn't really like it.

The movie was two and a half hours long and it felt as if nothing had happened throughout that whole time. There really wasn't any character development, and I just felt that either the screenplay was lackluster or the film was poorly edited. It kinda felt like Paul Thomas Anderson was trying too hard to make a Citizen Kane.

What is the deal with movies having these half-assed endings these days? It doesn't seem to matter, as people just seem to eat it up and label it as wonderul no matter what.
