Yawn... overrated

Rating: 4/10 (6 February 2005)

I don't get what so many people loved about this movie. I kept waiting for something to happen... but nothing ever did! It was literally one of the most boring films I have seen in my life.
Oh, I understand that it's supposed to be about alienation. I realize that it stars Scarlett Johanssen, the "it" girl of the moment, and is set in Tokyo for cool visual effect. That's all very well and good.
But then what? Some semblance of a plot might be nice here. Am I the only one who fell asleep watching this, waiting for something - anything - to happen? I have to say, this is one of the most overrated films of all time. Snooze.
