Very confusing

Rating: 5/10 (24 November 2012)

I didn't read the book nor watched the television series, I saw this film on television, twice, because on Sky it is shown fist in the evening and then the next day at lunch time. The first time I watch it in English and because I was utterly shocked I couldn't quite get it, I am not unintelligent or uneducated, I usually have no problem, I watch it the next day in Italian my mother tongue language to make sure that I wouldn't miss even a single comma and still I couldn't get it. For the first time in my life I was very confused on what was going on. The flashbacks in time where confusing to say the list, a couple of characters were looking alike so you didn't quite get who was who, a guy was dead ...no it wasn't, you think is a flashback, no it isn't the guy isn't dead, the characters were too many and their appearance on the screen too sporadically placed , it was very difficult to understand and remember who was that one and how relates to the others. I am sorry but you can do a film only for the people that read the book or watched the television series, really!!! Watch it only if you are a buff of this particular book and of this specific television series showing only in one country.otherwise it is compulsory to feel thick.
