Comments

1. Miasantosxo: never thought affleck would take 20 minutes just to lay in the snow and get up again

3. Obsidian Pulse: where's the real twist in this nesting doll mess?
4. Sanaazizxo: affleck's got some great face-candy going on, but that barn-shot is all i'm getting from this

8. Marek: can't figure out what's supposed to be "directionless" when every frame is so meticulous and technically dazzling
