2 1/2 Hours of Torture
This movie was garbage from beginning to end. I knew from the pathos-ridden intro with the bike wheel going around and the jurors' voices, the slow-mo war flashbacks and the overwrought titling, that this would be a bloated piece of craptastic junk. Yet, I sat through it .... and it only got worse .... and worse. It's a amazing that someone can string together so many cliches, poor writing/adaptation, trite & unbelievable characterization and get away with something that people call high art. Throw in some swooping camera work, cgi effects and trick editing and you get a wannabe hollywood showpiece.
This was so bad it wasn't even funny. I mean seriously, every time a juror started with another divergent story I wanted to cry. Cry with pity for all the people that forked out money to see this thing. Do yourself a favor if you haven't seen it, but really feel like you have to. Pirate it.
