Terribly boring.
This was maybe the most boring film I ever watched.It was dark, nothing seemed to happen, the characters were uninteresting so I did not care at all what happened to them.
The worst part was Nicole Kidman who appeared so cold and uninspired in her countless close-ups that I really lost the wish to see her in any movie again.
All in all a big flop that everybody who likes to have some plot in the movies he watches should avoid.
