6/10
This film requires coffee!
6 October 2006
OK, I watched this film taking a day off work with the flu but I wish I had gone to work now.

It is unbearably slow to the point that any connection with the film is impossible. I only came on to this website to check how many more minutes of mind-numbing drivel I had to bare.

I waited for some special something to increase my interest in this film but it never happened.

The atmosphere simply does not build up and does not engage the viewer which is a shame, as this film could have been much better.

At several points in the film I was very tempted to stop and watch something else. It is like watching a blur waiting for the mist to clear but you will keep waiting.

There are many films out there which have made a lasting impact to this genre. I will not name these films for brevity but please look elsewhere if you wish to see quality treatment applied to this topic.

Also, the film is in a constant state of darkness with a tint of yellow which lets the cinematography down somewhat.

I have not seen any other films by this director but I shall carefully review comments before making such a brave decision. I just wish I had spent more time selecting this film to watch.

The film lacks a driving storyline and whilst the acting is good, they cannot save what is essentially a dull film.

One good point and reason for the score I have provided is that the scenery is very pretty and cannot give reason to complain. So if you want to see a pretty picture (only) then this could be the one but otherwise, just avoid this non-entity.
