Those qualities aside, I still felt completely uninvolved. I want to love this one, but all I feel is blech.<BR/><BR/>I also rented 'Mister Lonely' for the first time and thought it was excellent. Far beyond the negative words I'd read. There's something really mesmerizing and uniquely beautiful captured in it.
