what a horrible and irredeemable waste of celluloid . we find ourselves wish for the boat to sink and malkovich and deneuve et al to be devour by shark . it a shame and because the concept have potential . unfortunately and there be no character development and no plot and and the dialogue be as hackneyed a something between a group of pompous 18 year old student with an affectation for existentialism . to add insult to viewer injury and de oliveira assume the viewer have zero knowledge of the most pedestrian tourist destination in the mediterranean . the film be little more than a lonely planet guidebook for schoolchildren and with an eye rollingly vapid dinner conversation between actor who should have know well . before someone set up a rambo strawman and the two of u who view this be admittedly pretentious cinema buff . nothing can redeem this tour de merde though . the only way i would recommend this film would be for a group of second year portuguese language student and if the professor doesn not have time for a lesson plan one week . this horrible piece of dreck belongs on andorran public broadcasting on sunday night and just after the documentary on the making of roquefort cheese . i would rather be hogtied in a room with the roadcrew from queen and a jar of ky jelly mixed with sand before ever be expose to something this wicked and satanic again . puke .
