20 minutes in and I was bored to tears. This film was released in 2009, and has only garnered for itself TWO other reviews, and those were written be professional hacks no doubt connected to the film virtually begging for other people to 'Go! Go see it!'. Please.
I say it could have been a great film because the sets, landscapes, and cinematography are excellent. Just one problem (two or three actually), the script is terrible and about as believable as Dan Quayle showing up on your TV late at night asking for money to help support the G.O.P..
The dialog between characters holds no water, scenes are jammed together about as seamless as a car accident, and no one in their right mind gives a damn what happens to anybody by the end of the film.
I can't know for sure, but I strongly suspect this film went financially bust 6 months in, leaving all the Galley Slaves to present a glorious turkey to the movie going public, pieced together by scraps carelessly dropped on the floor.
Well, it was a turkey...
I only hope the young Keir Gilchrist's acting career isn't completely disabled by this total bomb of a movie. I did see quite a bit of potential for this young man, but it didn't (couldn't) come out here.
Just awful.
