This has to be the most boring, god-awful movie I have ever seen. It's an hour and a half that drags on. No dialogue. No plot. No development, just scene after scene of mopey Rufus and that french woman.
The movie starts out mediocre, a couple is seizing one last hope of finding their missing child, but it goes quickly down hill from there. The wife is obviously completely insane but the husband just goes along with it. Even when she gives away all their money when they're in the middle of nowhere...even when she tries to drown herself...even when she goes nuts eating rice!?
Within 30 minutes I was starting to just repeat to myself "don't care...don't care" and reaching for the remote to fast forward past all the traveling scenes. There's about 20 minutes of actual movie, and then 1:10 hours of them walking or driving or boating or walking again...
There's no tension. There's no suspense. There's no pacing. The whole movie can be summarized as such:
1) Close up on wife's face. Hey look, she's sad and dead inside. 2) Wife freaks out and pushes husband further into the search. 3) Husband gets upset because he keeps following his crazy wife. 4) Traveling scene 5) Traveling scene 6 -> 19) Traveling scene 20) Hey look, they finally arrive and...nothing happens. GOTO 1
This repeats 3 times and you're done. Congrats, you just watched a boring, pointless, awful movie.
