Whilst very well-acted it was a little dull at times and overly long to the extent that I found myself 'clock-watching' in places - an equivalent of a 6/10 score is far from a dud by my way of thinking though. I also recently watched Inherent Vice, which although attracted a higher score (the equivalent of 7/10) from me also seemed lower than the general majority of folks who have watched it. I have yet to see a post-2000 PTA film that has really wowed me... although There Will Be Blood did come close.
