Sigh. It's too bad that film studios don't really tell you what a film is going to be like instead of using fake superlatives like "Exciting!", "A Must See!", "Best Picture Of The Year!" etc., etc. "The Place," by all means, is a stinker. The acting, at least, was believable, but the story line was WAAAAY to ridiculous and fantastical to be taken seriously. I guess I should've known I was in for a scripted bore just by the plane, uninteresting, boring title alone. Stay. Far. Away.
