    Interesting tale but far too slow

    If it wasn't so slow it would be an intersting tale. Atfer 1hr 45 mins i gave up. There is far to many pointless shots and long lasting scenses with no point.

    Mind-numbingly boring

    I have never, ever watched such a boring film. Rock erodes faster than this. The shots are so slow that you wonder if your DVD player is stuck at quarter speed. Avoid if you don't want to waste your time.
