What are peoples opinions on this movie?

To me it had all the right hallmarks of a good epic but the multiple story lines weaving through it made me not really connect to any one character yet.

I thoroughly enjoyed it and the multiple storylines. It's more than a little on the depressing side but I felt it was a decent epic and achieved what it set out to.

I'm easily satisfied by movies generally though and I watch a good number of them as I find them a great wind down in an otherwise incredibly hectic life but this one was better than average for the films I watch and I curate / filter quite a bit.

I thought it was a good film as well. Not sure why it had all the bad press. There are many many terrible movies all the time and I believe it was unfair to this specific one which is telling an enormous story. If the second and third part form a cohesive story, I think this would be a good rainy Saturday film fest epic.

It's not perfect, I'm not here to defend it with specifics, but I did enjoy it.
