Terrible.

Rating: 1/10 (24 February 2008)

I will be the first to admit that only actors with superb talent could have pulled this role off as well as they did, but this story arc and lack of dialogue turn this into a giant waste of time. This movie should not have been edited to a 2.5 hour film, and the big spans of "nothing" that are consistently shown in this movie destroy anything that it could have had. A failed attempt at artistic uniqueness.
Where was the character development for his son? Why did every scene have to contain a 5 minute silence where you are forced to look at a character doing nothing? It is one thing to bring in new or very old techniques and styles but it is another to flood something with so much of the same thing that it saps it of all respect it could have had.
Terrible.
