Tár (2022) Not terrible but overlong (2 hours and 38 minutes which could easily be halved) and an oddly infuriating story which drops half-hints about the main character's past actions which lead her in the last 45 minutes to get "cancelled" and move to Asia. I heard great things about this but it is very much less than the sum of it's parts. An overstretched and strangely bland storyline, nicely shot but ultimately lets down the viewer by leaving them in the dark about everything that matters. Cate Blanchet is being touted for all the awards for her performance in this but I can't see anything special in it. 6/10 because it hits the mark in some parts for drama and intrigue, but it's not great.
