The critics hated this movie but I actually liked it. It's definitely a 'watch-it-twice' type of movie because after you figure out what's going on, you realize you may have missed some things but I think because I'm already familiar with Fogelman's writing style from watching and loving "This Is Us" that I get it...and I know how his stories appear to be 'all over the place' in the beginning but end up as Patinkin's favorite word, "connected" in the end.
