Please, please, please tell me it has a satisfying ending that gives you more closure than "There WIll Be Blood". That movie was beautifully shot and paced perfectly...up until that last 20-30 minutes that abruptly ended with that ridiculous "I'm DONE" line at the end. I swore off of Anderson completely and I'm looking to you to hear that he's redeemed himself before I waste another 2 hours of my life. Also, I tend to disagree with the statement, '“The Master” is too much to process in one viewing. Its almost unfair to review it without seeing it twice.' To me that just means that the director wasn't succinct enough with his story telling and editing to get his point across in a single viewing. That's not to say that the movie will be more enjoyable the second time you watch it or that the movie will be one you will WANT to watch a second time or more but stating that it's almost unfair to review it after just one viewing is to me a weak argument for sloppy film-making. No, I haven't seen this movie personally but I want to know more details about it and not just a vague hazy glow of a review. All I want to know is that it has an ENDING!
