Negative Positive
Title: Dull as ditchwater and about as deep.
Review: A large portion of the running time of A Taste of Cherry--perhaps the majority--is footage of a guy driving around in his car. You think I'm kidding? Watch the movie, I dare you. You will say "holy cow, that guy was right."I have a high tolerance for movies that are slowly paced--if they're actually interesting. This film is not. I thought that a man trying to find someone to help him commit suicide was a good premise for a film. This movie proved me wrong. It is boring and trite. The cinematography is dull. The dialogue is dull. The words of the wise old taxidermist sound like they were written by a college kid trying to be deep. I really hate the word "pretentious," but this movie earns it.Did I mention the interminable "waiting for the security guard to make the guy some tea" scene?
Is the review positive or negative?
