Movie Reviews:
- Andres Gomez: The cast is great. Quite an ensemble with Gleeson delivering yet another fantastic performance. The photography and landscapes are beautiful … but that’s about it.
The movie is quite a mess with no clear story line other than showing a collection of dysfunctional characters. The ending is quite a bluff. It starts strong to dissolve slowly like sugar in coffee.
