Geoffrey Rush is an outstanding actor and the movie begins quite interesting. But I have not the slightest idea why some are so excited about "the plot twist". Besides the surprise part being no surprise, the plots also isn't very well balanced. It wastes times with story parts that don't really contribute much, while it also ignores or minimizes elements which could enrich the experience. I expected a lot more, considering the high ratings.

The movies was great but the relationship was disgusting. Really wasn’t needed either. Also without giving away to much the pacing was really bad. Definitely won’t see the ending coming though. Amazing twist. A must see movie.
