About
You’ll likely enjoy Big Eyes if you like true-story dramas about identity and credit-taking, with plenty of media spotlight and relationship tension; Not for you if you want a more consistently gripping tone or tighter pacing, especially if you prefer Vice or Hitchcock instead.
Pros: true-story intrigue; strong performances; eye-catching art theme | Cons: uneven tone; pacing drags; ending feels rushed
