The Master
Directed by Paul Thomas Anderson
Starring Philip Seymour Hoffman, Joaquin Phoenix, Amy Adams
Rating: B-
This was an
intense movie that had me pondering the characters and their alternate
psychology treatments. The actors did an excellent job and I believe this is a
movie to keep an eye on come awards season, especially for actors Joaquin
Phoenix Seymour Hoffman. However, I didn’t connect with the characters. I do
not feel this is in any way the fault of the actors, I attribute this to the
fact that I lacked the patience needed for the story development. This is a
longer movie, compared to most other feature films of recent. In addition, the
movie didn’t move along very quickly; it lacked a certain pacing. I still give
it a B- rating because I appreciate the alternative topic of the movie and all
the director was attempting to accomplish.
