Raging Bull
Unremarkable, lacks any genuine emotion. You just don't end up giving a shit about Jake's life or what became of him, like it's all his own doing, sure, toxic masculinity ultimately was his downfall, but it's hard to care about any of it. I guess that's to say the writing was weak? Don't get me wrong though, it was well acted (also, Jesus, Robert De Niro was unrecognizable in this, when I'd read that was him playing Jake it was a real shock! The prosthetics were phenomenal, I actually cared more about the art of that than the way the story went lmao)
