Colin Farrell and Margot Robbie in A Big Bold Beautiful Journey (2025)

Review by cfossi

A Big Bold Beautiful Journey

5/10

Somewhat depressing situation-ship?

The movie had potential, but it dragged and leaned too hard on forced drama instead of good storytelling. The pacing was slow, the emotional beats felt manufactured, and the characters came across as more unlikeable than sympathetic.

The female lead is introduced sleeping with a random guy, which added nothing but more of the same "no consequences" messaging. Later, she's portrayed as a flake, while Colin's character is framed as a love bomber. Both arcs felt more like clichés than real people, which made the romance fall flat.

The time-travel concept could've been fun, but it lacked explanation and mostly served as a backdrop for heavy-handed "life lessons." Instead of feeling meaningful, it came across as another layer of negativity.

Overall, the film didn't deliver the lighthearted, funny tone the trailer promised. A few decent ideas here and there, but bogged down by pacing, messaging, and unlikable leads.

Final Verdict: 5/10 - interesting premise, poor execution.
