“The cinematography and acting are solid, though the slow pace might test your patience.”

“It's a film for a fairly narrow audience and is very slow paced... too slow. Honestly, I expected more from this movie. A certain strong dramatic spark that really justified the time spent watching it.”

“Modern self-indulgent rubbish. Too long. I gained nothing from watching this. It's nicely photographed, but that is a given in the 21st century. The acting is fine, but this is a review of the movie as a whole. Don't waste your time.”
