Imagine yourself on a cold January night forced to watch as someone empties a barrel of molasses with an eye dropper. Flush a $20 bill down the toilet, add a bag of popcorn to the experience and you have a sense of what it is like to pay to watch this movie.
I'm told the book was much better. It had to be.
Yes the cinematography was skillful and eventually it all kinda comes together at the end, but the end didn't come soon enough.
I'd wait for this one on HBO if I were you. It might do the trick if you need a two and a half hour inspiration for a nap on a rainy day when you are stuck at home suffering from the flu.
