Well I don’t want to come off as a rube. I did appreciate the attention to detail and it’s a beautiful movie with a consistent vibe. You can still find something boring with all of those boxes checked though.

Sorry, didn’t mean to imply that, but my wording kinda does, you’re right. I just meant that if those elements aren’t, at least in the particular mix and form they take in these films, engaging for a given viewer, I can see how they might be boring. They definitely have a different focus and form than most films, including a large majority of very-well-regarded or “sophisticated” films (I don’t mean they’re just different from, like, Fast and the Furious X).
