If you would enjoy the kind of evening where friends invite you over to view 2,000 of their holiday snaps painfully and slowly without ever completing any of their holiday stories, then this is the film for you. Very naturalistic and also very boring.
What a huge dissapointment this film was. I love Colin Firth, but I spent most of the film wanting to slap him to wake him up. The scenes jumped all over the place, with nothing ever getting resolved. At least half of the film was of the sisters wandering the same streets to and from their piano lessons, boring!!! By the end I actually wanted someone to die just to liven things up a bit.
