From beginning to end, one of the most quiet movies I have ever seen. Nothing even comes close. It took me 3/4 of the movie to eat my kid's reel meal sized popcorn because every time I put my hand in the bag it could be heard all over the theater. I have read the reviews, and many people loved the film. I tried my best to like it, but it never really reached me. Prehaps it was my mood - I don't know. The male lead role character annoyed me. This could have been the intent of the movie makers. The female lead role was the best part of the film. I liked the action scenes the best. The pace of the film was even but very slow. Production quality was above average. Very little music is used during the entire film.
