If whispered monologues were currency, Michael would settle the national debt.

Unpopular opinion: Michael is the most overrated film of the decade
Everyone praising the Michael performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in Michael?
Look, I wanted to love Michael. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in Michael?
Just got out of Michael and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.

The cinematography in Michael is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows
Honestly, Michael would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.
