Might be the best movie of 2020.
The way dementia is portrayed and puts you in the shoes of the person suffering from it, lifted by a memorable soundtrack and immersive performances - it really shows how powerful of a medium films can be. My feelings echo what others are saying about Anthony Hopkins' performance, and how he overshadowed everyone else. The writing and direction is no joke - making the audience connect emotionally with a confused character to a level where you feel like you're the one suffering when he does - is a feat in itself.
I highly recommend it, because it brings in a sense of sympathy and patience in high doses for the people suffering from dementia, something the people who made this movie were aiming for.

Yesterday I thought of watching it, but first consulted the internet - IMDb, to be precise. A 7/10, meaning it was an average movie. Today I saw it and was completely blown away - A different and emotional take on Sherlock Holmes. Now that I'm back on this site, it's rating has dropped to 6.9. What a shame, you people. Is it the movie's fault for not feeding you everything about Sherlock Holmes you already know, and for trying something newer and better? No. Did the movie help you make emotional ties on a deeper level with the world's most famous sleuth? Yes. Movies like these make me want to bank my trust on the critics consensus of RT, because if horrible movies (I'm not naming them here) have a place in IMDb's above 7 list, then I just lost my faith in IMDb and most of its voters. Have a good day.
Checkmate, haters. And sorry, it's just not your year. I have seen this movie, but I won't mention a single spoiler here. (If you guys want proof, you can PM me and I'll tell you how the movie ends and the after credits). The reason I'm really writing this review is that I KNOW THERE WILL BE BIASED PEOPLE HERE WHO'LL WRITE THAT BVS IS BETTER and this is trash, etc, etc. Well, just see this movie and judge for yourself. Speaking briefly of the movie, it is an emotional roller coaster with an absolutely beautiful end. Spidey had a satisfying screen time. As for the acting, by the time the movie ended, I was a happy man. Russov's are handling Infinity War, and after watching this movie, how they did justice to characters, I'll not worry. A movie we wanted as well as deserve.
