I missed the movies last weekend because I went to SiouxperCon last week and was unable to see the movies. I was looking forward to A Big Bold Beautiful Journey. Sadly, with the two movies from last week, I did not miss much.
According to IMDB, “In this tale, David heads to a wedding in his old car with a unique GPS. He meets Sarah, and together, they embark on a journey suggested by the GPS. Along the way, they confront their pasts and explore painted landscapes, leading to a deeper connection. As they contemplate their future, they face a crucial decision about their relationship.”
The biggest problem with this movie is that I felt like I had seen so much of the film from the trailers that the rest of the film felt lesser. Most of the most interesting pieces of the film was stuff that I had seen. That is a major problem for a film like this.
I am not sure that I feel much for the relationship between Colin Farrell and Margot Robbie. These characters just did not do it for me much. I liked the individual actors a lot and I think their characters were interesting, but it did not feel like they had this great connection that the movie wanted it to be.
I did like how these strange doors that they keep going through led to individual characters bits, because the individual characters are more interesting than they are together.
There are some good moments in the movie. I was not offended while watching it. Maybe a little bord, but not offended. I could see this as a lazy afternoon watch, playing in the background. It is not a film that I should have been upset about missing.
