Nice cinematography, terrible story telling

Rating: 3/10 (23 January 2008)

This movie starts out with great promise, but is very disappointing. They seem to have put a lot of effort into setting up the story and the beginning draws you in. But some of the scenes in the middle are needlessly long and drawn out and do nothing to contribute to the telling of the story. Then suddenly realize that they have to end the thing because it is getting too long and quickly jump to an ending that is completely disjointed from the rest of the film.
If you must see it, wait for the DVD. It's a waste of money. I can't imagine why it is getting so much positive attention from the critics. They must have paid someone off.
