   Is if Beale Street could talk boring?

   • If Beale Street Could Talk is the perfect example of a movie that I expected a lot of and that turns out to be really boring. It's not the actors though, they all can act, but it's the story. It's so slow it gets really irritating. Not only the story is slow but also most of the shots.
