A SLOW AND DREARY MESS

Rating: 1/10 (10 April 2018)

What an incredible waste of so many fine actors! This movie is incomprehensible. Any person who says they understood it is lying. British drama is ordinarily quite good, but this is the worst example I've ever seen. It is an overlong repetition of silences, mostly from Oldman, that explain nothing. Perhaps we were supposed to read his eyes to understand what he was thinking.
I only hung on to the end in hopes that the plot would become clear, but it never did. Of course, my IQ is only 140. Perhaps an IQ of 180 is needed to understand it. It reminded me of another mindless flic called "Inception" that I saw two days ago ... total gibberish and unintelligible, and at the end you have no idea whatsoever what happened. Stay away from this one too!
