Freakin' appaling movie

Rating: 1/10 (8 April 2004)

I have NEVER been so bored as when I was sitting in a theater with my wife watching this moving. It was astonishingly pointless and bad. None of the characters struck me as being even remotely worth my interest. The plot was nonsensical. It was one of those "would it be worth it to gnaw my own leg off to get out of this theater" moments.
My wife, who'd dragged me to it, amazed me after the movie was over by looking at me and saying "That was truly awful -- I apologize" before I'd even had a chance to register with her how I felt about it.

I was stunned when we watched the Oscars that year and saw it take award after award. At least Juliette Binoche had the decency to apologize to Lauren Bacall for taking a Best Supporting Actress award she had no business being awarded.
My God, but that was an awful movie.
