Long and boring

Rating: 2/10 (2 June 2013)

This is such a boring movie. Plot is so long and uninteresting, and yes there are some good moments but most of the movie is really bad and pointless. Yes, i realize that it is a movie from 1987 but hey 2h+ for this unpleasant story is a really long time and i almost fall asleep, and also, really had to speed it up. Jim or Jamie (Bale) is an annoying kid, jelling and crying all the time. I got so nervous on numerous of scenes and i hoped that he get shot or something just to shut up for a while. Basie (Malkovich) is a nice character, for a moment, but still undeveloped and he could have been something in this. Other characters are unimportant but director wants them to be the opposite which is impossible. Many pointless, long and boring scenes. Avoid this if you want to live longer.
