No Action and No Dialog

Rating: 4/10 (26 November 2016)

Call this film what you want, but I call it boring. There's extremely little dialog. There's very little action. It's a very long film. Add those things up and you get boring. I really couldn't tell what was going on for the first half of the movie, then in the second half I realized that nothing was going on so there was nothing to understand. In place of dialog between characters you get bits of narration from different characters as the viewpoint changes from one person to another. You also get long silent scenes of people thinking or holding each other. Don't wait for some strong story line to emerge that pulls you into the movies or attaches you to the characters because that never happens. The morsels of action are a mystery since there's no clear motivation behind them.
On the positive side, I will admit that the sets and costumes were well done. The film does pull together some acting talent, though it seems wasted.
