The Tree of Life

This film gives the impression of being a complete pile of crap. About five minutes of film and the rest of boring still shots of the universe and a few other things whilst opera is playing in the background.

With Fiona Shaw and Brad Pitt in it you are thinking that it can't go wrong but just Wikipedia it, the plot is really boring. I couldn't have thought of this plot if I had taken all the drugs in the world. I find it hard to write a review on this film because the squealing from Fiona Shaw made it sound like the world was going to end combined with 28 days later, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and a few other horror movies which involve everyone being killed. To just watch a powerpoint presentation and listen to opera was a bit of a letdown after hearing that squeal. I am sure that the rest of the film is fantastic but like when watching 2001 a space odyssey, there are better things to be doing in our lives than watching paint dry.

It says a lot if the film has be turned off out of boredom because no film should ever have to be turned off before it has really started, let alone a film staring Brad Pitt and Fiona Shaw.
