Saw it early today and I must say I was blown away by the performances of the entire cast, particularly Margret Robbie and Ryan Gosling. Who were outstanding. It would be a great disappointment if either of them misses out on award nominations for their exceptional acting.

There likely won’t be any other movie that’ll match it’s OW. The Marvels will have a chance to come close but I’m not sure it can build the same type of hype.
