Okay, as many others have said here, yes this movie is painfully boring. The scenery is the apparent star, and no scenery is interesting enough to watch on a tv screen for about two hours. Maybe in an IMAX theatre it would be awe-inspiring, but as fancy wallpaper rather than a movie.
Comments I've read that talk about great acting seem odd. We rarely see the faces of the actors because almost everything is a long shot. Even with almost no plot, there are huge holes in said plot. It is more like someone shot a lot of film and then semi-randomly pieced it together. When there is dialogue it is pointless, and almost certainly contains the F word. I'm no prude, but just F'ing saying F over and over doesn't pass for dialogue.
This is another of these movies that a select few pronounce as brilliant, and actively look down upon the apparent luddite masses who find it crap. You'll find reviews like that on this site. There is no better example I've seen than Gerry to illustrate that such an attitude is almost certainly an attempt by an overly artsy pretentious snob to impart value into something awful simply to feel above those who "don't get it". So unless you're a pretentious snob, my advice would be to pass on Gerry.
