Foxcatcher (2014)

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1100089/

I fear this movie will be the Mystic River of 2014. The critics are loving this one, but I just don't get it. The movie was long and slow and not interesting. The performances were excellent, it's just unfortunate they weren't of more interesting people. And now that I've learned that several key elements diverge from the truth (it is based on a true story. If not actually being entirely true), it makes the whole thing seem like a waste of 2+ hours, not to mention of Vanessa Redgrave in a terrible role.
