Great actors, interesting story, this could be a very good movie, at least for someone who like this genre. Unfortunately, pace was terrible. One of the worst movies' paces of all time. I don't mind slow burn movies but a movie of this particular genre (something like drama/romance/neo-noir) should be faster. A slow movie should have great cinematography, should raise philosophical issues or something like that. This is the story of a man whose wife is cheating on him. Not an art movie. No need for shots that doesn't serve the plot, this is not a magical Wong Kar Wai movie. As it was progressing, it was more frustrating. It was very difficult to watch. At some point, it took almost a minute for the leading character to open the refrigerator. Come on, what is this?

Someone more patient than me might like it.
