From the start, the movie is plodding and downright boring. The acting isn't great, but neither terrible. The cinematography is blah. The character development non existent. Basically, you know that you have no emotional attachment to any of the characters, and can walk out of the film at any time and never have an urge to watch it again to see what you missed, because you just don't care.
Whether the director, or the actors, ever go anywhere in their careers won't be because of this film. Comparing it to classics, and genuinely great directors and storytellers: yeah, I don't think so.
