The Guns of Navarrone

Rating: 3/10 (10 March 2018)

In one episode of the Dick van Dyke, Rob falls asleep in a theater playing The Guns of Navarrone. No one believes him. Now I do. I fell asleep during BL 2049- twice. I have rarely seen a more boring film. Even the third act of 2001, which was deliberately boring, topped this turkey. The Creation of the Humanoids covered the same ground 60 years ago. A total talkfest, but handled with taste and intelligence, it's 10 cents budget produced better results than this bloated mistake. It also tried to be deliberately obscure and certainly succeeded. The original BL was dark and depressing; 2049 thought that half the light would be twice as bright. Wrong! I did like some of the settings and the fight in the sinking car, but that's about it.
