The Shoutbox
I haven't seen Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, but I did notice that it was garnishing a lot of critical acclaim and awards, so that's why it peeked my interest when you, @Iroqouis, said you noticed it was bad. I wasn't specifically thinking of acting, but yes I did emphasise acting in particular originally. I wasn't so much trying to make a point about acting, as just noticing a movie is bad in general part way through.
Yeah, I mean the original question was about noticing bad acting anyway. Didn't much care for the movie aside from that either.
He might have just meant he thought the acting was bad. I didn't, but I guess some of it could seem overwrought.

Usually I'm either on board for the whole thing, realise it's bad from the start, or realise it's bad after watching the whole thing and thinking it's good, but as for realising it partway through a movie...hmm. The only one I can really think of that comes anywhere close is Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri.
What was it about Three Billboards that made you realise it wasn't a good movie?

Meh, it wasn't a great movie, and it wasn't artistic, but it was pretty entertaining. I enjoyed it. I think I have the VHS in a box in my parents' basement somewhere.

I say that in my best haruko haruhara voice.
