Well, this was... something.
You know what movie made me feel like this? The Tree of Life. I consistently felt like there was *something* really beautiful and really interesting about that movie beyond my reach, but, like with Tree of Life, I couldn't quite break through the wall of OH MY GOSH NOTHING IS HAPPENING. I'm pretty sure there was a four-minute shot of these men just staring into a tunnel. That's it. No dialogue, no sound, not really any movement. Just tunnel-staring.
I just don't have the patience for a movie that has four minutes of tunnel-staring. 1.5 stars.
Flickchart: #1458 out of 1911, below Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey and above The Firm.
