Good but highly overated !!!

Rating: Null/10 (17 April 2000)

Yes, the cinematography by John Seale is great and yes there are some good points in the story, but overall it is bullshit !
The atmosphere in the movie is good, but I asked myself why I found the movie boring.
I think that the movie is not enough long to tell the story the film pretend to tell.
Well, I got it ! IT IS TOO COMMERCIAL. This supposed to be a deep movie, but the way the action is shown, this movie lost is great potential !
Well I gave it a 7.5/10 for John Seale' cinematography, Peter Weir's direction (there are a few good scenes, especially when Ethan Hawke scream "YOP") and Maurice Jarre's music.
The acting is bad and Robin Williams play Robin Williams, not John Kiting.
