There were intimations of Gotham, or even Sin City in Se7en through which Morgan Freeman and Brad Pitt were guiding lights, the atmosphere and mood also kept the movie on course. By the very title, along with the early revelations, you knew pretty much well what was going to happen, which reduced the tension somewhat. But boy o boy, the surprise ending made up for any reservations! Recommended.
Later on FTA, no grand feats of derring-do with costume regalia, matching dialogue or breathtaking denouement to be found in To Leslie, rather a blunt and earthy script to see the lead characters on their way. One of those movies where the urge to switch channels could not be entirely sublimated as the high critical appraisal did not quite convince. It’s worth watching so long the usual expectations of derived movie entertainment can be mothballed prior to screening.
