I really enjoyed this movie. It was beautiful, tragic, weird, funny and romantic.
The locations and cinematography were gorgeous. The screenplay and direction were fantastic. The whole cast was great, but especially the two leads, Jamie Dornan and Emily Blunt who delivered strong and touching performances (no surprises there).
It had a nice slow, but not at all boring build, and I absolutely loved the "twist" which was both unexpected and well played.
I didn't recognise John Patrick Shanley's name as director, however after looking him up it came as no surprise he was involved in a few other movies which I really loved including Moonstruck, Joe Versus the Volcano and We're Back.
Highly recommend this if you're into the things I listed above. It's well made, well acted and has a great storyline.
