Like other's have the pacing was off and it felt like there were missing parts.

What I'll add is that it felt mismatched tonally. They had this goofy comedy bit in the middle of the film that felt like it didn't fit in well the rest of it. It was really jarring and it felt like a bit of the magic disappeared after that.

Still a very beautiful film with interesting ideas. Love the main character and his willingness to throw hands. Wish it was 3 hours long instead of 2.
