I agree with the film being a love letter encompassing Dylan, the music, an era. Superb filmmaking, storytelling, acting & performances throughout. There's a soulfulness permeating this one. I appreciate the depiction of those times. A beautiful film.

Loved the movie! Superb acting. The fact that all the main actors learned to play their own instruments and each sang their own songs was amazing. Always enjoy learning the back story and what makes songwriters and musicians tick.

The movie was great! Timothee' Chalamet did a great job performing. Loved Ed Norton as well. The film depicts a man who, while not the greatest singer, certainly had a magical (his words) way of saying something about the world in profound and prophetic ways. Those who give it a bad review obviously know nothing about the man. He was a bit anti-social, not nice to the press, and a contrarian. Perhaps that was his way of dealing with the pressures of stardom - and what made him prophetic. No one has to love the artist to love the art.

Well I never understood what was so great about Bob Dillon. He's an awful singer. The folk songs are cute and it was nice to hear some oldies though. The actor bore some resemblance to him but the character was very flat. Overall, the movie is a snoozer.

The movie didn't overstay it's welcome and covers the beginning of Bob's career. Tim did a great job all around and deserves an Oscar nom. The music is great and you get the strange mix of super extreme progressive politics and music industry capitalism with all it's hypocrisy, as well as the audience's power to hold back artists that want to periodically reinvent themselves. Lots to mull over, especially on how you lose your privacy when you become famous.

I was disappointed in this movie. I thought Bob Dylan’s character was very one dimensional who provided great advertising for the tobacco industry. I found it difficult to relate to Bob Dylan’s character as a human being. He came across as a bit weird and anti-social. The music was well done but the humanity and personality seemed to be lacking.
