What a colossal waste of Time!

Rating: 2/10 (15 March 2012)

A Movie which got several Oscars, including "best special effects" has to be an absolute blast. At least that was what i expected of it before watching. Now i simply wonder how a Movie with such a flat story an NO SPECIAL EFFECTS AT ALL can get such high ratings/awards. Maybe you have to be a filmmaker in order to understand the plot and/or identify with it. For me it was just a colossal waste of time and i am extremely disappointed.
There was 1 good thing about the movie which was the only reason i even watched it to the end: Ben Kingsleys outstanding acting performance. Even though i still do not understand his behavior: *SPOILERALERT*: crying and acting as if all his family had died after being raped and hacked into pieces, when all that happened is... well watch it yourself! Anyway, though totally misfitting behavior, he sold the emotionally torn - "dead inside" man.
