Agonizingly long and drawn out

Rating: 2/10 (8 July 2009)

Well just finished watching the DVD of this film and it's two o clock in the morning (put it on at eleven). My girlfriend fell asleep half way through and went quite rightly to bed, I on the other hand stayed up to see what was taking so long to happen in this movie ("big mistake"). I've watched thousands of films in my life and this one ranks down there with the worst of them. The first thing that started to annoy me was all the flashback scenes, so many you will start to get confused at points (and what was the point in most of them anyway). Next to annoy was the cardboard acting, no real feeling in or for the any of the lifeless characters. By this time a good portion of film had passed and nothing much had happened to arouse my interest, I kept thinking something big might be just around the corner but it never was unfortunately. Probably the biggest bummer for me was the ludicrous storyline (if you could call it that). You could liken it to a parallel universe of the united states of America (ridiculous). Then comes the big ending "what a disappointment", or it might have been had the rest of the film not sucked. 2/10
