That's Two Hours I Will Never Get Back
9 September 2023
I give it 3 stars, because 1) the cinematography is absolutely gorgeous, although most of the time the cuts between scenes, while dramtic, make very little sense; 2) the music background is beautiful, although a lot of the time I wanted The Foley guys to go away with their ambient stuff, and just let me hear the music; 3) although the story line (I really can't call it a plot) is basically non-existing, it does have some beautiful sublime moments but (as someone said about Wagner's music although I paraphrase) awful, dragging, going nowhere, boring, pointless, confusing, meaningless quarter hours.

It has some superb actors, but it is wasting their time, as most of the time it appears they don't know what they are actually acting in. Basically a waste of talent.

And while there is some mostly gratuitous semi and full nudity (female of course) it does nothing to further the plot (if there were one) and appears to be there mostly to get a restricted rating in order to suck in viewers.

That said, I kept watching to the end, not because it drew me in, but there was a sort of horrid fascination whit how bad it was, and wanting to see how much worse it could get.
