Title: Wake me when it's over
Product review: I literally started falling asleep during this movie. I had heard it was wonderful, but I must say it isn't nearly as good as everyone has made it out to be. Take a look at the four men who are the subject of the film. Sorry, folks, they ain't all that interesting. A guy who cuts bushes to look like animals. Yawn. A guy who studies mole rats. Whatever. A guy who trains lions. Zzzzzzzzzz. There is no grand statement about life to be found here. It is all rather mundane stuff masquerading as "deep" insight into the human condition. Needless to say, I think the breathless reviews claiming that this movie is "brilliant" and that "it changed my life" are preposterous.In short, this is a mildy diverting movie that I shall forget as soon as the final credits roll. Perhaps its greatest achievement is to show just how easy it is to fool people into believing a mediocre film is a work of genius. Leave this one on the store shelf.
