There are some great sequences, especially earlier. The acting is absolutely stellar. Interestingly, my favorite among them, Hoffman, is probably the one I find least convincing here (seems to be doing a great parody of his character which may be the point). There seem to be many interesting themes and threads that are so intertwined that it was hard to take away a lasting impression. Anderson seems to be freewheeling here may be a little too much.

Flawless acting and cinematograhy, but I just did not get it - no clue, what this was all about, so the 138 minutes dragged quite a bit.

Rather intuitive and emotional than structured and plot-driven telling of the relationship between a WWII veteran drifting on the outskirts of post-war American society and a charismatic leader leader of a rising cult called "The Cause".

PTA applies his sprawling style not to individual people this time, but to abstract representations of universal human desires that are trillions of years old. Mesmerizing even at its most obscure.

Truly an acting clinic put on by Hoffman and Phoenix. The direction is sharp, the soundtrack bops along, and there are incredible scenes throughout. It is a bit rudderless and odd overall, but it kind of works with the themes and aura of the Master and his followers.
