Review of Foxcatcher (2014) by Simplemethod — 02 Dec 2014

Foxcatcher is a deliberately slow movie, but a good one. I think it's definitely the weakest of Bennett Miller's three movies though. Mark Ruffalo, Steve Carell and Channing Tatum all shine and the story is interesting, but the pace is very slow burn and when the climax does arrive, it feels a little unwarranted and lacks the massive emotional punch it should have had.

Still, wouldn't be surprised if all three and the director get nominated.
