Title: Awkward...
Review: As a fan of a few of the actors involved, the trailer seemed promising, and the idea entertaining enough -- but once I actually started watching, there were points where I literally had to stop and do other things to distract myself from thinking too hard on the awkward presentation.The only way I can think to describe it is to say that scenes and characters sort of stagger around into each other without a concrete sense of what they should be doing or why they're doing it. Through most of the movie I was confused about what I should be feeling about who, and by the time the end rolled around (after two hours), I felt like the film expected me to care more than I actually did.The locations are beautiful, Tucci is great, as usual, and I was glad to see Rhys again, but the movie is lacking overall. Something as simple as smoother dialogue might've bumped it up to 3/5, but as is, definitely a 2.
