Dull, dull, dull.

Rating: Null/10 (18 November 2004)

Please may I have the 90 minutes of my life back?
I haven't been so bored by a movie since "Bad Lieutenant". I know the principals were driven together by boredom, but was it really necessary for the audience to join them? What with that and cheapo-travellogue footage of Tokyo, I really cannot understand what the fuss was about. I can only think this got the adulation it did because of who the father of the director is. I ended up watching the last half of the movie at 24x speed and my wife went to bed. There was, after all, no dialogue worth listening to. OK, Scarlett Johannson is absolutely gorgeous, but so what? And hasn't Bill Murray got old?
Null points.
