Title: Artsy-fartsy
Product review: Jane Campion is the reigning queen of artsy-fartsy movies, and Kate Winslet needed a quick antidote to her too-high-profile mega-Hollywood role in "Titanic". All of the characters were shallow; the romance got annoying and unconvincing; there was not enough background and context to tell us why Ruth was searching for herself and how the family seemed to manage to have all the reveling and laid back lifestyle while no one seemed to be holding a career or full-time job. Some of the colors appeared to be computer-enhanced and exaggerated, as in scenes of India in the earlier part of the movie. Except for zoomed in shots of the moon rising and the sun setting, and some panoramic shots of the outback in fiery late afternoon light, most of the shots were exhaustingly and boringly typical of Jane Campion.
