I must be in the greater minority, but I disliked this movie overall. I honestly liked it up until about halfway, despite abrupt pacing. However, after Durham's decision to turn away from his sexuality --- and furthermore, his horrific enjoyment of his new life --- I just couldn't agree anymore.
Everything felt unsettling and unnatural, and nothing seemed to make sense. There seemed to be so much left out that in the book ( which I haven't read so I'm assuming ) must have been expanded more fully. I feel pacing is a huge flaw in this movie, leaving out important detail and more importantly, LEAD-UP while extending seemingly unnecessary scenes and detours.
I recommend reading the book instead, as I later found that the plot line was also changed in the screening. Hopefully these major issues were not present in the literary original.
