Love in the Time of Money (2002)

trying to get from point A to point B

[4/10 · 13 August 2003]

the more i think about it, there was nothing redeeming about this

movie. i saw it 9 months ago, so my memory might have made it

worse than it was, but i do know it was at least as bad as a 4 out of

10.

after seeing the movie, i met the director. he seemed so clueless

as to what he was doing or what he had done, and as far as i

could tell, he didn't care for the film either. even he agreed that he

didn't really know what he was doing, and he was forced to do

certain things because it was filmed digitally.

i felt that the movie was trying to hard to fit in to the formula that it

built for itself: "9 people all have to be connected in some way. how

can we get from point 'A' to point 'B'" so in order get from the

prostitute we see in the start and back to her at the end they 10

minutes on each character's relationship to another person. it

makes one feel choked by the 2 demensional, badly drawn

characters.

I just remembered the one redeeming part of the movie... Steve

Bouchemi there is one scene where he is amazing. that's it. as i

say... 4 out of 10.
