Review of By the Sea (2015) by Bill Goodykoontz for Arizona Republic — 19 Nov 2015
Jolie Pitt is going for a European cinema vibe here, but all the smoking, drinking and speaking in French can’t disguise the fact that there isn’t a lot going on here. Filmmakers reserve every right to demand patience from their audiences, but they have to provide a worthwhile payoff in the end.
By the Sea simply doesn’t.
