Re: Magnolia, some thoughts
I saw this a while ago amongst the kind of crowd who were 1: surprised I hadn't seen it and 2: thought for sure I would love it.
I didn't like it. It didn't suck me in and I felt the ending was bizarre and completely contrived. Maybe it created some emotional resonance with others, but it took me right out of the whole movie and I still kind of hold it up as an example of overwrought cinema.
