It was fantastic in every way...except one. The cursing was wall-to-wall. Just like "Deadwood", but worse. I don't know why, but hearing the "f" word and the "mf" word and the "s" word every five seconds is draining. NOt that I'm a prude and I certainly use my fair share of cursing on this forum. But to write a script with it so much just ruins a movie for me. Jerry Seinfeld says that he doesn't swear in his act because curse words are a short cut for not writing good material. I think the same thing applies to a movie script.
