Do not waste your time.

Rating: 1/10 (8 February 2006)

From an audience point of view, this movie was not enjoyable. The main actor's words were difficult to understand and I spent more time trying to decipher his drawl then enjoying the film. The story moved very slow and is similar to most Greek tragedies. Just because the story's content was controversial for its' time, does not mean this movie was good by any means. Do not believe the hype, this movie was not well done and should not win any Golden Globes of Oscars. The only reason for someone to see this film is if they are interested how someone deals with life as a homosexual and a sheep herder. Ang Lee is capable of much better.
