Disappointing Yawner

Rating: 1/10 (9 January 2016)

Immediately forgettable, because no emotional connection is established between the characters and audience. As you are watching, you find yourself asking "Why isn't this working?" and, as you walk out of the theater, you're still wondering "Why?" One answer is the characters are single dimensional; another, the editing is confused, chopped. A third, scenes of nature, the outdoors, environment, locale, etc that should be integral to the emotions, but are not evocative, and seem to have been filmed, then interspersed periodically for no reason and to little effect. David Lean could use the locale to tell the story. This director cannot or does not. Im sorry to say these things, because I was really looking forward to the movie.
