Review of Once Upon a Time in Anatolia (2011) by Steve M — 05 Apr 2012

I don't know what the critics saw when they rated this movie so well, but it was a slow and painful ride around gorgeous countrysides with little redeeming value. The film trudges on one scene crawling after the next.

Each walk across the street ticks off minutes from the clock with nothing to show but a crossed road. I was really hoping the story would pick up in the second half, but it didn't. This movie may only be watchable on a long plane ride across the Pacific.
