FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://movieswetextedabout.com/ballad-of-a-small-player-movie-review-a-sensory-overload-carried-by-colin-farrells-magnetic-performance/ "Ballad of a Small Player is a sensorial experience elevated by all the artists involved. It's a story about a man trying to find himself amidst a culture marked by out-of-control capitalism and greed manifested through audiovisual intoxication. Despite a slightly unbalanced first act and a central relationship that deserved more screentime, the film is a triumph of form, technique, and, above all, the magnetic performance of Colin Farrell. It's his misery and his desperate search for authenticity that grip us, culminating in a powerful, satisfying conclusion. It deserves to be seen on the big screen for its scale and ambition. When all the cards are on the table, the real bet is never on luck, but on the courage to be real." Rating: A-

Not worthy of your time...

And, certainly not worth my time to write a review about these self-absorbed, narcissistic and overrated actors. But, here goes... To say it's over-directed is an understatement. This movie was all smoke, and no fire. Nothing to fill one's soul here. It's empty. Nothing to warm the heart. Just like the main character, this movie hits rock bottom.
