If you enjoy watching a family crunch cornflakes for 15 minutes, this is the film for you. I have never walked out of a film. In this film, I leaned over to my partner twice and asked if he wanted to leave, but he was sleeping so soundly that I decided to let him rest.
The sound effects seemed to capitalize on crunching, whether it was snow, cereal, or grass. The kissing scene was a major turnoff, and was one of the few scenes that lacked crunching or ticking. Yes, some of the photography was beautiful and could have been condensed to 15 minutes. This was one of the biggest wastes of 2 hrs that I have ever spent.
