fell asleep

Rating: 3/10 (16 January 2015)

After reading on line that this was up for an Oscar and saw the many celebrities in the cast I was anxious to see this film. I think I laughed once during the entire film. Maybe I am dense or maybe I am the wrong nationally to enjoy this flick, but I just didn't get it. I actually fell asleep I was so bored. I was very disappointed as I love Ralph Fiennes but I felt this role was totally beneath him. Also the portrayal of a main character when he was older was totally off...confused me terribly. I did however enjoy the scenery thought it was beautifully done. Perhaps I should read the book and then I would understand exactly what was going on. Again it bored me, I was waiting for something exciting to happen and I felt as though it never did.
