Can anybody please stop the cutter?

Rating: 4/10 (26 August 2002)

Speaking about the skills of dirctors: A few days ago I watched
Kubrick's masterpiece 2001 again and enjoyed his loooong and
slow camerawork showing the beauty of his tableaus and
locations. Well, THIS here is the other end of the candle: Although
the photography is pretious and the effects are alright I couldn´t
enjoy most of the story. I´m often a very hectic person myself, but
why do these filmmakers think a movie gets better if they cut
EVERY SCENE after two seconds? This might work for the MTV
music-videos (from where "they" might have got their inspiration)
but here it ruins the film. I'd love to give this movie an 8/10, but they
cutted it down to an angry 4 with their cheap cutting talents. No
thanks.
