Natalie Portman and Julianne Moore - what could go wrong? Apparently everything.
When I saw this pop up on Netflix and checked the ratings in IMDB, I was excited to jump in and see what May December had to offer.....
I was not pleasantly surprised. I found myself resting in something beyond boredom.
We have all heard the stories of teacher / student sex scandal. This movie takes a a new approach. We see a couple that has succeeded that challenge and created a family. Now rendering attention from a movie producer / actress.
It had all the bones to be successful - and the two leads did a great job with the material. Yet somehow it was not a compelling film. I'm not sure why or how it's rating this high. I was so bored it took me four tries to get through it.
Everyone's a critic though... it might be for you, just certainly wasn't for me.
