Movie Review : Broken Flowers

WTF! Some really good actors. Really good. Julie Delpi, Bill Murray, Jessica Lange, Sharon Stone etc. How could it be so boring? The plot could be made into a somewhat good movie but not in this case.

Bill Murray is somewhat watcheable but not really all that funny. He just sits there thru most of the scenes like a spectator. You might be confused into thinking he’s waiting for someone else to do something interesting.

Julie Delpi is out of the movie before you even settle down. Sharon Stone does not too much as opposed to in Alpha Dog. Did I mention that nobody does anything?

Which begs the question of what the conditions are in which case you’d want to watch this?

Its not a date flick because its not funny, there is not much feel good about it and its boring. So, guaranteed you ain’t getting any after this unless your idea is for some solid sleep.

Whats next. You have time to waste pernaps? Well, it sure is a waste but it would be more wasteful than doing nothing. You’d have more fun singing in the rain.

Wait, I know it. I just thought of two scenarios in which case you’d want to see this.

The first is the situation where you want to disgust and put everyone to sleep. So, if you want to break up a good party, just turn this flick on.

Ok, for option two. Your in jail for life and you think that maybe life outside could be more interesting. Yes! This is the movie to dispel that myth. Life with even the most interesting people is boring.

So, there you have it. Now you know if you should be seeing this movie.
