    @Tom Stewart

    There is a difference between wanting a detailed review of the movie and wanting to have a detailed plot summary of the movie. In fact, I've read many reviews of this movie and only this one revealed anything but the basics in terms of plot.

    A good reviewer can talk about the acting, the directing, the cinematography, etc and provide an opinion about which elements worked and whether the end result was enjoyable. And they don't need to reveal spoilers to do it.
