I went into The Brutalist expecting something at least interesting. The premise had potential, and the early visuals hinted at a layered story. But as the movie progressed, any sense of intrigue slowly faded.
By the time it ended, I didn’t feel connected, challenged, or even entertained. There was no emotional payoff, no lingering questions, no reason to hit play again. It’s not that it was bad—it just didn’t leave a mark.
A film that promises depth but delivers a flat, forgettable experience.
