A heartfelt odyssey with authentic slice-of-life moments. McDormand's performance held my interest more than the plotline, which is unique but not quite big enough to sustain nearly two hours.

I had forgotten how stylish this film is. I need to make a list of masterful opening scenes because the balloon sequence would rank near the top.

Holy crap, what a gruesome nightmare event. Riveting storytelling with great style, excellent cinematography, an otherworldly soundtrack and strong performances across the board. This docudrama deserves all the awards. Every single one.

This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
