Review of Foxcatcher (2014) by Leri J — 05 Apr 2015
Chilling as the frosty night, this part sports biopic-part thriller is one of those gilms that's you just feel uneasy watching for mostly the right reasons. It's molasses-leveled pacing, silent atmosphere, empathetic performances by Channing Tatum & Mark Ruffalo, and jarringly unrecognizable and uncanny performance by Steve Carell really gave the movie it's psychologically traumatic edge blunted by it's puzzling subtleness albeit sometimes not-so-effective vague or slow parts.
While not for everyone, this is nevertheless a very effective cinematic synopsis of what lead to an unfortunate tragedy.
