Marcello Mastroianni's acting is superb, and Ennio Morricone's score is great. I wasn't surprised at the accomplishment of either of these two talented men. The movie, however, was disappointing.
For me, the dream sequences and the surreal imagery didn't fit in well with the rest of the film. At times, the editing could have separated these from reality better. The movie simply didn't fall together well enough to keep me interested in the choppy storyline.
