Girl with a Pearl Earring (2003)

boring dull dull bore

[1/10 · 22 November 2017]

My ex husband and I have a long running joke about how boring this film is. In fact I forgot all about it until it showed up recently and once again I watched it just to laugh - I don't know if they re trying to portray how boring Amsterdam was in 1664 but that's the impression - poor working class people are giving a hackneyed cockney-ed accent and posh people a rich upper class English accent. The main character Griet by Scarlet Johanson has a lower lip hanging open the whole time proposing her lack of intellect. Her eyes and their expression never once change from embarrassment of her sex.

How any man could even spend time talking with this mono-syllabic robot was beyond us.

No other actors speak more than 3 syllable's in each sentence.

In summary it is the most boring film I have ever seen. The fact its rated so highly on here worries for the poor like me who today cant afford to waste their money and truly this film is a waste of time and money this is the third time I've seen it and Im writing a review whilst its on in the background on a closed window and believe me Im not missing anything

Dartmoor Killing (2015)

Probably the worst 'film' I ve ever watched.

This is a joke a film. Ten years olds could come up with a more interesting plot - the acting is abysmal - its not even funny bad - its just depressing that standards have gotten so low that people are actually duped into watching something like this. Character - are never developed - there is no 'personality' in this film - whoever did the score did a good job the music is beautiful - but that is it - everything else about it - think about your most boring school lesson when you were a kid - then imagine it lasting for two days - that is just about how bored watching the first 45mins of this film made me feel. And its so awful I had to come on here and write a review as I was lead to believe there was some merit some it by previous reviews - and there is not. I have been to Dartmoor - so what? there are about three locations in this film - could be anywhere. Boring. Avoid.
