Review of Stay (2005) by Chris H — 03 Jul 2009
I read the negative reviews from the critics, and I really can't argue with some of the points they make. The movie does sometimes bore the shit out of you. So much, in fact that I almost turned it off. Ewan McGregor sleep walks through his role, but since Naomi Watts was in it, I held in there.
The cinematography is first-rate. Director Marc Forster, who also did 'Stranger Than Fiction', and 'The Kite Runner' really does capture the eye.
All that said, I have to say, "See it", but with some reservation. You can throw out the first 10 minutes and go from there.
Reminded me of 'Requiem For A Dream', but not near as good.
