Review

knew how this would turn out within 30 minutes, so the next 1.5 hours were spent hoping that more characters would enter the story. instead it got caught up in the romance with smith and dawson and never went anywhere. the idea of the film is potentially a good one in the right hands and with the right people, but this film didn’t have any of that. music, especially the main theme which featured a four note phrase that repeated with the third note being intentionally ill-tuned, was awful. acting was poor. just all-around not a very good film. points earned for being well-intentioned i guess.
