Verdict: Domhnall Gleeson has been on a roll for the past two years with movies like Ex Machina, Brooklyn or The Revenant. His latest addition to his already rich filmography is nowhere near the quality of his previous gems, and this is mostly due to a script that overdramatized some events (without spoiling anything, there's a scene near the end that made me say "Oh, come on" out loud), and some poor editing work. I felt at times that some really vital scenes were missing and that some jumps in time were out of place, which left me with the feeling of having watched three-quarters of C.R. Milne's story, which inspired the Winnie the Pooh books. Even great performances by Gleeson, Robbie, and especially Macdonald couldn't save for me what could've been 2017's "Finding Neverland".   

Final Grade: 5/10
