Solid film, but pretty formulaic. Good performances and even if it's not doing anything new, it does what it does very well. Not the best of 2014, but a good film.

No. Best movie I've seen since birdman, and not that far off from "the best of 2014."

I agree with the poster above, very well done but nothing that innovative going on. I felt some parts of the writing was pretty lazy like the entire girlfriend episdode but the strong parts of the film make up for it.
Simmons was spectacular and his Oscar was well deserved, I think his performance is mostly what made the film stand out.
Speaking of the Oscars I prefer both Birdman and Boyhood to this even thought it's close.
@bold I agree completely.
@ the rest, personally I'm in it for the emotional investment. This one had me.
