I settled down for a long wallow in a beautifully filmed romantic weepie. What I got was eternal tedium. The story was thin drivel, the 'acting' was executed by people determined to give it their very least effort and the time just went on and on and on.

It won Oscars, it was lauded by the critics - were they on drugs? How much were they paid? Maybe I was missing the point and at the end it would become clear why everyone had raved about it so much. So I wasted an entire afternoon. It didn't get better, if anything, it got worse, and I wasted my precious time on it.
