This was the only Paul Thomas Anderson film I hadn't seen apart from Inherent Vice. For the first half I thought it was a good film that was realistic, but didn't have anything that particularly wowed me apart from the acting and cinematography. Then the second half kicked in, and I was reminded of why I love PTA. Looking back to the first part in the context of the film makes it much better, but I'll be honest when I was underwhelmed for the first hour or so. In the end, 4.5/5.
