After the first 10 minutes of this movie at the IFFR, I was thinking "Hmmm...this could be a very nice movie". It had it all: humor, wits, nice photography, a teeny bit of suspense even. But then, after about 45 minutes, I started wondering what this all was going to. No direction, fragmented storytelling, and the general feeling that I was not seeing what I wanted to at the moment. After about an hour the movie had lost me completely: what is this all about anyway? Do you know that feeling, like, when you're completely bored with a situation, that you'd rather leave but remain seated because you keep hoping it gets better? Well, thats how I spend the rest of the movie.
The movie has enough elements to make a nice story, but every decision taken by the writers, the director, the editor, whatever, leads it further away from it. Pity.
