the book and previous film aside . this be just plain dreadful . it slow and tired and wooden with nothing of real interest crop up anywhere in the film . i be sorry to say that i watch all of it but i be in continual hope that there be go to be something well happen any second . the premise seem interesting and it just a shame that what be such a good idea be closer to have nail pull when watch . there just no reason for anyone to feel anything for the character and there nothing there to give someone chance to identify with them . all in all it present itself a a very sterile film and with each seprate scene seem so force a to jar the nerve . the hero of the piece and if you can call him that and just mope around look miserable and inefectual and and all in all it just bite . there no real reason for anyone to want the character to succeed or fail . and in general there not a lot of interest in the whole film . there be no scene that be just good to look at and no memorable piece of dialouge or memerable character . fairly pointless all around in fact . avoid .
