    NOTHING GOOD or meaningful here
    Depressing from beginning to the very end. Other times, just slow and boring (how many minutes of walking in the park can you stand?).

    No real plot, no development, no growth and no redemption. Just a showcase of suffering, destruction and survival (barely). It seems the point of making this movie was to show the viewer "suffering/abuse" by making us suffer by watching this. If so, it succeeds; but I'm not rewarding it.

    Giving it an extra 2 stars simply for some of the "colorful" street characters ...without whom the movie would be difficult to watch.
