Title: Find me a slower, more pointless movie -- I dare you!
Review: There are bad bumps writer/directors take, and then there are Hiroshima-like disasters. This is the latter. Pretentious and ponderous on an order of magnitude even this director's Kirsten Dunst movie about Versailles can't touch. What a sad path Sophia Coppola is on following her Lost in Translation triumph.I would be very wary of trusting anyone who liked this movie; it's not just a matter of opinion, it's a matter of knowing what a film must supply an audience. Do not take the recommendations from any reviewer who gave this film more than one star. They really are not on the same plane as most people who expect a cinema piece to offer dramatic conflict.
