28 Walk Outs At TIFF North American Premiere
Just saw the North American premiere at TIFF (Toronto International Film Festival). About 20 minutes in I was wondering when the mass exodus would begin.. it was shortly after. There isn't an adjective invented to describe how slow this was. And before the pretentious "what were you expecting, Transformers?" replies, I saw Leviathan and Winter Sleep at TIFF last year and those were both great, but in comparison to the pace of this film, they might as well have been Rambo films.
The most entertaining part of the film was watching all the walk outs, it was the only thing that kept me going. My official count was 28... at a FESTIVAL. So I'll let that speak for itself. Unless you're trying to induce a coma, be forewarned.
