Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Expected more

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Decent and fast paced documentary exploring the history and purpose of marriage within western culture primarily. There is an attempt to keep it unbiased but I felt that there were few voices for monogamy that were interviewed. Nevertheless, it thus raise thought provoking questions about it and what it means to our society. Half-way through it at 47 minutes, a statement blew my mind, that marriage in US part of marriage industrial complex and more importantly, the biggest group in poverty are single mothers, bigger than other groups combined, and the government is often acting as a pimp by trying to get them married off to take them off social welfare rolls. In effect trying to privatize the expense. It doesn't help when that statement could also apply to many community groups and organizations as well. Maybe there is some truth to it all after all?

I like documentaries,especially historic and biographical ones, and putting all the kinda''-gami's'' and diversity of sexual relationships through history under the spotlight,well ,its very difficult to make it work. this film though,has a wonderful amazing understory, very nice use of visual editing, very good narration, beautiful scenery and filmography, and the best of all ,NO SOLUTIONS. this is a film with very little adult content,and should be seen by everyone from 12 and beyond
