Plain boring and it is black and white?

Rating: Null/10 (7 April 2008)

I have never learned to appreciate the greatness of those old, black-and-white so-called classical movies. There are exceptions such as Bela Tarr's Werckmeister Harmonies and a very obscure Hungarian film called "Fallen" that came out a few years ago. But even those are still pretty recent. I am not saying all those old movies are no good, but most of them are. The limit of technology directly determined the fate of those classics. The conversations sound very artificial in this movie, like all other old movies. Sorry but if you compare the modern German war movie "Downfall" to this one, you will find how bad this movie is. The storyline of this movie is also downright boring. And if you are looking for something that can put you to sleep, this one will be it.
