I wasn't really sure what to expect from this movie. The film has earned praise and award nominations galore, and at the same time, the subject matter of the film did not appeal to me. However, the presence of Philip Seymour Hoffman in this film made me finally decide to see it. And I'm so glad that I did.Truly, this is one of the best films I have seen this year. Streep, Adams, and Hoffman were all absolutely PERFECT in their respective roles, and the story allows for much viewer mental participation. Never before have I seen a movie with so many long dialogue scenes, but where at no point do these scenes seem tedious or tiresome. Even a few days after watching this movie, I am still thinking about it.

I've been putting this off since Oscar season because I haven't been in the mood for anything intellectual and "talky" so I'll have to get to it soon.
Yeah I know what you mean I put it off for a long time as well (not wanting such a "talky" movie either) but believe me it is well worth the watch. At no point did the talk feel tiresome to me, which says something because even in some movies with EXCELLENT extended talking sessions, like "Hunger", the dialogue can start to feel tedious.
