There has been both glowing and dismissive reviews of this film.
If you want to be entertained and shown a good time, then this is not the film for you. This film is on the other end of the spectrum than the average action film.
This film lays down a subtle tapestry of images whereupon the characters drift about and interact (often without words) as they go about their separate quests or duties.
A quiet film with quiet rewards for those with patience to finish it.
Sometimes sparseness of action on the screen is needed. It's the difference between looking at a snap shot, and experiencing the stillness of the scene. The world is not always filled with action, it often has periods of reflection and meditation. Avoid using the Fast Forward function of your DVD player.
