Review of Caché

Caché (2005)
1/10
Watching paint dry is more exciting than this "thriller"
28 January 2006
Maybe life is tedium. But when I spend good money to watch 2 hours and one minute where tedium is sold as art, I just want my money back. If this movie keeps you on the edge of your seat, its a good possibility that you just want to get up and leave.

The acting is unimpressive: The argument about "trust" is so banal that it becomes laughable. Does anyone really care about the characters or that they experience some unexplained dread in their otherwise yuppie existence? The movie needs a solid editing job. Minutes and minutes of screen time where nothing happens rapidly becomes infuriating.

Unfortunately I watched the subtitled version. This meant that I could not nod off as I sorely wanted to do. Can anyone explain why the critics are so kind to this waste of celluloid?
