You bring up an interesting point. In most “touching” movies, that is exactly what you would have. And it touches on an impression while watching the movie: It jumped through all the hoops a movie like this is supposed to, but in a “technical” way. That is, it was like a movie where everyone mailed in their part, from the photographers to the lighting crew and the actors. For us it didn’t have any “heart”. It was like a movie created by a company that makes movies solely to earn profit for their stockholders, rather than because they are motivated to put their vision to film.
Don’t get me wrong. Most movies fall into that category, but at least they are good at masking it. With this movie it seemed that way from the git-go.
