Tedium in the extreme

Rating: Null/10 (7 September 1999)

If there was ever a film that required an hour slashed from its length, it's this one. Now, I love a good romantic film, one that makes me sniffle a little, and this one started well. You know, a bit of true love and so on. But did it go on? And on and on and on ad infinitum. I was so tired of flowery speeches and interminable pauses full of "meaningful" looks, that by the end I was screaming for death to take them ALL! Mercy please. 3 hours! 3 bloody hours! It barely had the plot to carry it 1. Make the bad man go away.
