Long, slow, boring

Rating: 6/10 (7 February 2017)

I don't mind slow movies that build tension or ... something. This one drips. Like a slow leaky faucet you can't turn off or all the way on. Like a horse-drawn carriage in a blizzard, it's going somewhere but taking an unnecessarily long time to get there. Cinematography? Check. Acting? Check. Interesting or dramatic or fun or engaging? Uncheck.
About my reviews: I do not offer a synopsis of the film -- you can get that anywhere and that does not constitute a meaningful review -- but rather my thoughts and feelings on the film that hopefully will be informative to you in deciding whether to invest 90-180 minutes of your life on it.
My scale: 1-5 decreasing degrees of "terrible", with 5 being "mediocre" 6- OK. Generally held my interest OR had reasonable cast and/or cinematography, might watch it again 7 - Good. My default rating for a movie I liked enough to watch again, but didn't rise to the upper echelons 8- Very Good. Would watch again and recommend to others 9- Outstanding. Would watch over and over; top 10% of my ratings 10 - A Classic. (Less than 2% receive this rating)
