This film is bad news

I am unhappy to report that i made my poor step mum sit thru approximately 4 hours of porn. This film is the slowest most drawn out abomination i have ever seen. Not for me! If it wasnt for the very attractive girl i had sat next to me, i may have died through boredom. Dont see it, even if its the only thing on- just dont. Incidently- i very nearly didnt make it.

Well acted, involved story

Although a little longer than necessary, if you are willing to get involved with the story line, you will become drawn into the film. Well acted by Daniel Craig and a few other good cameo displays.

For the first time in my life I nearly walked out of the cinema part the way through this film it was so slow, flashbacks to me should be quick snappy fleeting moments, not all the drawn out pointless scenes that went on for so long before getting to the point of the girl being blown up.
The ending didn't even give you satisfaction thinking at least the main characture had learnt what a pointless life he was leading and trying to put it right, it just ends with him going back to America.
Also the date timing is incorrect, as a teenager the music and fashion was great (although the film was too lengthy with this part) it was accurate for myself as a teenager, in the 70's but this year I will be 50 and Joe Scott, his sister and Ruth when being show as today were only in their 30's, wish I could turn the clock back and in 2008 after being a teen in the 70's only be in my 30's now.
All together I wouldn't recommend this film to anyone the only people it may interest would be those as teens in 70's to see the fashion again but to sit through the whole film for that it isn't worth it.
