here comes yet another Forrest Gump comparison. although Bloom comes off a little less charming and more of an idiot. i really could not get over the "working for literally a sentence about a girl you don't know anything about" no matter how romantic or fantastical it was supposed to be. some things are just too offensive to look over i guess. some really fun stuff here though, especially early on that again reminded me "wow Tim Burton can make a good movie." Considering I associate him with directing my least favorite movie of all time more than anything else these days, it was a pleasant reminder. The baby just popping out and sliding across the floor like the force it came out with just rendered any umbilical cord nonexistent got a pretty big unexpected laugh from me.
i don't know why but the actor for the older version of the son seemed so out of place that it was almost uncanny like he was not a real person. pretty distracting though not through any fault of the movie's. overall enjoyable. 6/10
