dull & boring, 27 July 2008
1/10
Author: nirothegreat from Israel

genre is stated as 'drama'. am i wrong if expecting some "drama"? "thing" is stated as 'a movie'. am i wrong if expecting entertainment of some/any kind? should i NOT expect some kind of 'a story'? should i just sit there, watch some people wondering around, talking in brief-cut sentences about some business which is going bad, understand they want it to fly-high (wow), NOT having any interest, what so ever, if they are going to make it or not, because even after 20 agony minutes i haven't got a clue about their lives, desires, minds, personalities etc.? so i gave up. 20 minutes were just enough for me. maybe those guys who loved this thing, found something wonderful in the 21st minute and on. good for them. there are so many more movies out there, interesting from

- or almost from - the beginning, and life is short so...
