Fun Stuff

Goofs:
Continuity: When Morvern gets locked out of her hotel room in Spain and spends the night with a boy down the hall, her underwear and bra are beige. But when she returns to her room the next morning (before she would have had a chance to take clean clothes) they are red and black. Since the boy was rooming alone, it is unlikely that he had a girl's thong and bra with him that was clean and just Morvern's size. more

Boring & pretending to be an art flick, 22 November 2007
4/10
Author: jakemccoy from United States

My wife and I watch a film every night with no distractions, and mostly artsy films that require thought. I have tons of patience for films that are slow to blossom. My wife has double the attention span that I do. All that being said-- this film is just plain empty and BORING! It went nowhere. Never blossomed. It started fairly strong with a promising plot...then she bakes cookies...goes to Spain....she sulks, she stares....the credits roll. Uneven, full of holes, false starts & dead ends. We FF'd through several extended sequences of her just staring off into space. Artificial depth was implied when she played with the mud and cried. Zzzz...... It's like a beautifully shot chick-flick that's pretending to be deep or artsy. You never get to know nor understand Morvern at all. About halfway through you just don't care anymore. We just wanted to see at least one of the plot lines develop. Don't waste your time on this. I'm shocked it scores so high.
