I thought Nocturama a letdown after its first hour, and other than Pattinson's reliably solid performance and the editing Good Time escapes me too.

Personal Shopper and The Ornithologist (both at NYFF 2016) were meh for me

(no trite sexual banter from the peanut gallery, please)
The Ornithologist and Staying Vertical sometimes blur in my memories, i.e. rural surreal sexual hijinks

Richard Brody's list
“Good Time,” starring Robert Pattinson, streaks and smears and shreds the screen with a sense of furious subjectivity.

it's amazing that there was a hit Broadway musical about Barnum in 1980 (?) that was never adapted to film, and yet they made this one, which looks imported from 1969.
