Unconventional camera work and an (admittedly) beautiful soundtrack do not outweigh the terribly slow pace and the many nonsensical (and nonsensically long) takes in this three-hour cure for insomnia. During a massage, the main character Thien [Le Phong Vu] does not answer the phone three times in a row; we follow his entire moped ride from his house to Mr. Luu's [Nguyen Van Luú] house and there is a scene where it seems like you have to wait for minutes before anyone appears on screen. From a great distance, Thien appears on foot with a broken motorcycle. Minutes later someone passes by and helps him and a few minutes later he continues on his way. Waste of time takes on new meaning is what is undoubtedly the most boring movie I have seen in a long time. Possibly the most boring of all time! It must be about something, but after two hours I refused to deal with it any longer and my mind went blank and I concentrated mainly on staying awake. Awarded a Golden Palm for the camera work. The bankruptcy of the Cannes Film Festival in a nutshell.
