I love films. I have over 2000 of them many of which I have seen multiple times, and many of which are foreign.
So I looked forward to watching this one, based on the glowing reviews. What a waste of three hours.
The premise is good and the many potential plot lines promise so much. But just as they are developing nicely they are abandoned in favour of either someone starting wistfully into space or some absolutely inconsequential bit of rubbish. Worst of all the central plot, which you have given three hours of your life to, leads absolutely nowhere and you are left with a feeling of being robbed.
I suppose I'm supposed to feel some kind of existential angst or something, or wonder in awe at the mystical poetic beauty of it all but, really, it's a lot of pretentious nonsense which leaves one simply annoyed.
I buy 99.9% of the films I see. This one I wouldn't keep if someone gave it to me.
