I don't need or want to see this film. I know what's it is about and how it ends. Not my type of movie AT ALL. I don't pay for the movies to make me feel worse than when I went in. I prefer escapist junk.

A friend of mine developed the "noose" system of movie reviews. Instead of stars, he gives nooses depending on just how depressing or nihilistic a movie is.

This one sounds like a 3 nooser.
My husband and I went to see Benjamin Buttons and the preview for Revolutionary Road came on, and frankly, it was so depressing, and made marriage look like a major DRAG -

I also want to feel good when I leave a movie, or I want to be moved by poignancy, I don't want to be depressed about life and marriage after I walk out! Life's too short!!
