The title says it all...
Review:
And gets you there much more quickly. Inexplicably lauded by critics on its release, this is the cinematic equivalent of watching paint dry, with average shot length at about 30 seconds. Featuring an amorous catfish and an actor dressed in an ape suit and endowed with red cat's eyes, the better to be seen in the jungle after dark, it divides itself into interminable chapters which for the most part are not even distracting for the eyes. What it all means is anybody's guess.
