That's right, if we'd been missing, it would have been perfect. It's quite amazing the rave on it caused. Reading the synopsis you'd think you're on for something special, actually you are as what is special about it is, it's specially boring. Unless you fancy watching someone peeing on the ground or walking slowly sooo slowly.... Or SUDDENLY falling into a shallow stream with little consequence! We usually go to movies as 2 or 3 couples, this time it was 3 and so 6 people felt they'd been conned! I forgot to mention the spoiler...for me it was the whole movie. I found it very disappointing although I know there always will be people who see what other can't see; Yes I have visited art galleries enough to know what can be displayed as "art" but leaves you with a certain smile on the corners of your lips. But if you want for free the same experience this film gives you , Just go almost anywhere with a folding chair sit down and spend a few hours taking it all in, I guarantee you it'll amount to something very similar. Perhaps a yellow dog or a weeping camel here or there may have saved this movie.
