The Limits of Control (2009)
watch "Ballast" instead--much much much better

This movie tried much too hard. There was zero effort to make it anything more than a few pretty moving pictures of landscapes and cityscapes. The rest is for wannabe artist/filmmakers.
There was no depth to the movie, though it seemed to try and impress upon you that there was. Though the main character has physical and facial presence, it was not nearly enough to keep me from sitting on the edge of my seat waiting to get up.
If you insist on watching, stick with the first scene, then skip ahead to about 20 minutes from the end; you may be slightly happier that you didn't waste two VERY LONG hours.
Also, feel free to watch the movie on mute. You won't miss a thing, I promise. Even better, watch it at 1.5x speed, you won't even notice.
