Fata Morgana (2007)
1/10
Painfully dull
21 November 2007
Warning: Spoilers
Maybe I'm wrong to write about a movie I walked out of after 25 incredible long minutes (maybe all the interesting stuff happens after the first half hour?) but I just couldn't take it anymore!

(Some spoilers ahead) Was I supposed to feel anything more than genuine annoyance and dread for those stupid kids who drive into the desert without any good reason? "Hey let's get of the road and try to get lost, that sounds like a good Idea!" Until they get lost, I was just annoyed with the Kids and slightly amused about "The Stranger" who looked just like Peter Maffay. But after they started walking there doesn't really happen anything. I was so bored that I rather walked home from the cinema, through the rain, than having to watch this till the end. Don't get me wrong, I can absolutely enjoy slow or even art movies. But there was nothing I could cling to here. The actors didn't convince me for a second, the soundtrack was way boring and cliché and even the picture quality was rubbish (really grainy) - all that combined with a wannabe-artistic direction (some real dramatic cuts of... nothing happening) and a non-existing story was just to much. Please give me back my 4€!

PS: The _ONLY_ nice thing was some nipple after 10 minutes. And even that was below average.
