laughable

Rating: 1/10 (27 December 2006)

tcleeve from United Kingdom has it exactly right. if you go to the movies for visual excitement and beauty, you might get something out of this. if you go for story, character, acting, and a host of other attributes, you will be awfully disappointed. i am still scratching your head at the amount of good press this mishap has generated. especially among professional critics, the response is overwhelmingly positive. if the film weren't so blatantly, laughably bad, particularly in the 2nd half, i might question my view. luckily, i don't have to; it's that bad. stay away, stare at a blank wall, anything but this. in fact, i signed up for IMDb today just to comment on this movie(!).
