it will cure your insomnia

Rating: 1/10 (27 December 2013)

extremely boring, and pathetic, it will make you sleep definitely.. Wow, I am shocked at how misleading all the hype about this movie has been. It really is a history lesson. It's not fun, not compelling, not entertaining. It is laborious.
They throw a lot of fancy visuals at you, and put in some hackneyed chases in the train station thinking you will be enchanted. Well, it goes down like a very boring high school class in film history. I can't imagine a child being entertained by this movie, and only adults who are interested in film history will enjoy it.
I can see that there is a lot of money on the screen. The actors are clearly very good. The sets, wardrobe, filming techniques are all excellent. But, give me a good story any day. I was very disappointed, I tolerated this for about 2/3 of the running time and then just had to stop watching. This is such a self-indulgent film -- why would the filmmakers think anyone would want to watch a film about this narrow niche of history without bothering to make the story or characters interesting?
I would rather watch a documentary on the history channel about this subject -- I'm sure it would be more entertaining than this movie.
