Excellent performances from Joaquin Phoenix and Philip Seymour Hoffman (plus a very brief scene where Amy Adams seems to read a letter addressed to Penthouse Forum or something) are not enough to make this oblique and glacially paced movie about a cult leader transparently based on L. Ron Hubbard worth sitting through. I've said it before and I'll say it again: Paul Thomas Anderson sucks.
Shot in 65mm, so if you saw it projected that way, it might have at least looked really good, I guess.
