Waste of time!

Rating: 3/10 (31 January 2007)

This is a tragically flawed film, and one of the key criteria of successful dramatic arcs is not respected, i.e., 'make me care for the characters'. Well shot, well acted, with splendid production values, all lost in an incomprehensible mishmash of New Ager mushiness that goes absolutely nowhere. The letdown is immense. Culprit: the third set (future), and ultimate plot resolution, which is so abjectly corny as to register among the highest on the wince scale this year. It painfully jars the mind out of all suspension of disbelief, alas. So strained and far-fetched as to nullify the whole movie. Definitely three gobble-gobbles.
