Foxcatcher's a good 100-minute film dragged out and overcooked so that it can masquerade as a great one. Ruffalo is fantastic. 3/5

Flimsy implies it's weak and could fall apart (plotholes etc). Thin just means there's not much there.



I agree with you on the violence. Much has been made of how brutal this film is, but the...

I thought it was a solid 7/10 movie. The reason to go is strictly for the buckets of blood.
