Sorely disappointed

Rating: 3/10 (25 February 2004)

After all of the buzz swirling around this film, I was sorely let down by this slow, drawn out tale where nothing ever happens.
Does anyone really care about a poor schmuck that makes $2 million to film a commercial?
Or a wife that follows her husband willingly to a foreign country, then is bored?
Has either of them ever heard of tourism?
What about a character arc? None here for either character. They don't grow, don't change. Bob still goes home to his wife and incredibly young children. Charlotte still wanders the streets.
A story without a point is not always a good movie. I think originally there was a point here but it got lost along the way.
