Review of Import/Export (2007) by Alex K — 30 Sep 2009
Not much to enjoy with this bleak, and somewhat boring portrayal of to peoples struggle to support themselves and their families. One travels from the Ukraine to Austria, and the other from Austria to the Ukraine. That's pretty much the whole story right there, only it didn't take me 2hrs 20mins to tell it to you!
I'm all for "arty, european" cinema, but this was just empty.
The only positives for the film, are some quite interesting industrial shots early on in the film, and the fact you do somewhat care about the main female character, but that is not enough to salvage the film from it's massively self-indulgent running time.
Not highly recommended at all.
