Might this possibly be one of the worst movies of all time? Indeed, I believe it may very well be. It's definitely in my top 5. Slow, ponderous, overly pretentious, trite, self-congratulatory, what more can I say? Oh, the dialogue is complete rubbish and the delivery of it is even worse. I was not impressed from the start of the movie but somehow forced myself through the full 2 hours just to see how truly low it could go. The movie was utterly pointless. You really couldn't care less about the characters. They are not appealing at all. I would also add that you couldn't care less how the movie ends, but, since the movie has no real plot, that's kind of a moot point. Don't think I didn't appreciate this b/c I'm not an "artsy" type, b/c I enjoy plenty of good "artsy" movies, but this movie takes itself WAY too seriously and I can't fathom why, because it's complete rubbish all around, from start to end. And visually, it's OK at best, but again it takes itself way too seriously. Avoid like the plague.
