Contradictory impressions.

Rating: 5/10 (3 October 1999)

I am at a loss about how to describe this film. I found it fascinating and yet overly long. Is there a contradiction here somewhere? I was admittedly mesmerised by Nicole Kidman and some of the secret society scenes. At the same time the film seemed to last for ages and became boring in parts. I really can't analyse it and I suppose that the answer is "Go and see it for yourself". On balance its probably worth it.
