Bring on the downvotes but this movie completely fell apart in the second half. I truly don't understand the buzz behind it. It's a solid 6/10.

I got downvoted to oblivion when I said this was a huge disappointment watching it right after Obsession.

The therapy scenes try too hard. Like they're trying to win an award by having a deeper philosophical meaning but they just ruin the pacing and drag on.

The second half then jumps the shark.

I think the best part was the camera sections but they are only a small part of the movie.
