Yawn, Not the best Val Kilmer movie I've seen., 4 May 2008
5/10
Author: (felixcalpe)

Val Kilmer runs around in a park for a whole day. Sorry I just told you the whole movie.

Not the best I've seen but not even close to the worst. There is really nothing wrong with the acting. The story is just so boring. Endless phonecalls here and there to persons that are not introduced so you have to guess who it may be and that just makes it more confusing. Sudden laps in time back and forward but without indication on whats past and what is present.

The filming is very nice but would fit better to a romantic comedy. Endless panoramics over the park and closeups on people doing parkthings is nice for so many seconds but not througe a whole movie.

Sorry to say I couldn't watch it to the end. Still I give it a 5 because the movie makers has potential to become better. I hope this was low budget because it would explain a lot.

See the movie for yourselves and remember taste is different. You might love it who knows.
