The Critics are destroying "The Goldfinch"

[ohmylol]

The film premiered at TIFF and soon after the embargo on reviews lifted. Although some admitted the movie was beautifully shot, the general consensus seems to be that the adaptation fell short of expectations.

THE GOLDFINCH is one of the worst movies I’ve seen all year. It’s shockingly bad. https://t.co/VJdD9rLDP1

Has anybody read the book? Is it good? I do like Donna Tarrt, but this book has almost 800 pages, I just can't stand long books.

Why do people refer to him as handsome?

He's a slightly better looking Michael Cera

[iznanassi]

[sjazzmreow]

"Generic" is generous, tbh. He is actively weird looking.

[jogas]

‘Actively weird looking’ Lmaoo

[drunkenclaudius]

It also plays into the theme by being terrible

Great I have free tickets to see this tonight.

(also I forgot Ansel was in this. UUUUUGH).

[oblivious_frog]

My coworker actually said Ansel wasn't bad but something was lacking from the movie (and he loved the book). I'm curious to see it but I don't want to pay to see it lol.

[wirepatch]

At least they're free?
