Why?, 5 September 2007
3/10
Author: przgzr from Zagreb, Croatia

There are worse movies than this one. I've seen some of them.

There are more boring movies, not just a few.

In fact, I didn't feel an hour and half was over when suddenly the closing credits appeared. But, at that moment I asked myself, and I still haven't find an answer: what was this about, and finally, why was this movie made at all.

The plot jumps from one thing to another, never going back to end it, the characters that seem important suddenly vanish, characters' motifs are week (if existing at all), especially the main one, Andrea, who first appears to be firm on the ground but soon changes her plans, directions, wishes, as if she has nothing in the world to do ever again. Such people exist, they are not rare, but Andrea seems to have a respectable career and a successful life most of her life, so it is hard to believe that she would manage to make it if she was a person which we see in these few days.

The acting didn't help make characters believable, in fact it is more like schoolchildren making performance in nursing home for some special occasion like first day of spring. And the fact that all the characters speak German, from taxi driver in Capetown (who would probably have some trouble even speaking English) to all the rest characters and none of them is German, looks like an answer to usual American movies where aliens who meet human race for the first time speak a perfect Ivy League English.

Maybe this movie was made because someone on German TV wanted to get a plane ticket to South Africa. Otherwise it could be made anywhere, including next street to director's office.
