Sounds good, yeah? It's not. It's like some ****ing holiday show, all they do is travel. Nothing happens. Nothing. It''s just talking, travelling, more travelling, more drab conversation. To say this film is slightly boring is like saying Hitler was a tiny bit racist. It's boring on a momentous scale. It's monotous, slow, boring, tedious, sleep-inducing wank. Hated this. I got to the end and I was angry - is that it? Okay, so we get a bit at the end with aliens, which basically just float in the sky for a bit, then float away. ****ing great, and that's all we're gonna get? I mean, I get that the film is built on subtlety and understatement, but this is taking that style to ridiculous lengths. The plot just falls apart at every turn - like, the guy has PAID for an armed escort then gets all shirty when they turn up with guns. ****ing hell, that's what you ****ing asked for! I hated this film so much I'm going to cremate the DVD and hunt down the filmmakers and torture them.

I've finally found a film that I hate more than The Blair Witch Project.
Couldn't agree more. A bloody awful film in every department and the lack of chemistry between the two people supposed to carry the film was insulting.

Utter shite.
