It's the same problem Scorsese had casting Lewis in Gangs of New York. It all just becomes a vehicle for him to show off his acting chops. Definitely my least favourite PT Anderson film so far - given that I've not yet seen The Master.

No way! It's easily one of my favorite films of all time. Daniel Day Lewis is just brilliant all the way through, well you could say the whole cast is tbh.
