Title: Joyless film
Review: What a disappointment this film was after reading a stellar review of 4 stars on [..] The review compared Balthazar the donkey as a type of Christ, a suffering servant who doesn't complain and then finally dies. The photography was good, but the story was joyless. The characters had no seeming purpose other than the moment and many sinful, selfish moments there were. Relationships were surface and there was nothing uplifting or transforming regarding the film's characters. Instead, the film is depressing...devoid of hope and true faith. Even the movie critic included had a loss of words to bring meaning and merit to this movie. The only thing lovely and angelic is the DVD cover. I'm a film buff and would not recommend this film.
Is the review positive or negative?
