Soooooo disappointing
It's rare that I disagree so much with other IMDB posters, but boy, this was a loser for me. The screenplay does NOT know where it's going. The acting and the scenery are about the only good things I could find in this film. The director spent 2/3 of the film showing the same interpersonal dynamics between the characters- over and over and over.Major plot points were never resolved; the ending just fizzled, leaving me frustrated and angry.I got this to watch because I really liked The Princess and the Warrior, and Run Lola Run, and I had just seen Heino Ferch do a great job in The Tunnel. So, Tykwer and Ferch- I thought I was all set. WRONGGGGGG.
Plse don't bother to tell me I'm stupid or shallow or whatever. I very much wanted to like this film. I read all the positive IMDB posters' comments, but I completely disagreed with all of them. sigh.phooey. heino ferch is in very few u.s. released films. i'll just have to hope that changes soon.
