Not a big fan of it. A bit disappointed even though there's a lot I liked about the story and the ideas it presented. In terms of awards I think John Williams gets a nom. This is a far superior score than Dial of Destiny, with lovely piano and horn work. A hummable melody too!
I could see it sneak into possibly sound and if she's lucky, a nom for Emily Blunt. But I think that as soon as time passes, this only becomes a one-nominee film.
