The real life story is very sad and a compelling story. I feel like this movie makes one of the biggest serial killers in the world look like a decent human being which is a little frustrating. People complain about Dahmer but they didn't make him look like a nice guy like they have with Cullen.
Anyway...Redmayne does such a good job in this. He's a great actor. Chastain also did really well.
I'm all for a slow movie as long as it's still thrilling or mesmerising, but this one kinda just dragged out a bit. Long periods of silence and the lighting was so muted and dark the whole time, even though it wasn't a 'moody' psychological thriller type movie.
