I wanted to like it, but I couldn't

Rating: Null/10 (12 March 2006)

I went to the theater full of high hopes, and about thirty minutes into the movie I realized I had been duped by all the publicity and hype. The story has the potential to be a great movie, and the acting was good, but the editing and scene order was haphazard and non-sensical. It was as though they had been told to cut the movie down for time and just blindly went about editing. The final scene with the daughter seems oddly placed and doesn't fit with the rest of the movie. Characters appear and disappear randomly (what happened to Innus's other daughter anyway?) What could have been a wonderful movie was destroyed by poor storytelling. This was no fault of the brilliant and brave actors, I blame the screenwriters and the editors.
