What did everyone here think of Boyhood? I really wanted to like it but I just think it was so boring, it felt like the movie had ended 5 times but Richard Linklater kept wanting to add some more scenes. It definitely would have benefitted from being shorter. The subject material was definitely not compelling enough to stretch over that runtime, eventually the charm of "they filmed this for 12 years!!" definitely wore off.

The main kid was a pretty awful actor but it was a gamble casting a kid so I kind of give them a pass. Patricia Arquette really hits it out of the park though.

People keep bringing this up as one of their favorite movies of the past decade and I have no idea why unless you were absolutely enamored with the concept.
