The conversation

What can I say about 'the conversation? The sound design was I admit worth a mention and I'm sure it would have been something really special when first released. Yet, when I have grown up in an age where sound design is used to great effect in pretty much all films it did not make the film any more bearable.

I found the entire film depressingly slow and quite frankly never-ending. The story was interesting but unfortunately not interesting enough to warrant the actual run time of the film. I cannot stress enough how slow and sluggish the film was. Scenes and shot that just seemed to go on without much interesting happening. It just made me lose interest in the story completely. And when the twist was finally revealed at the end I didn't care for it much.

Perhaps I'm just too much of an 'MTV generation' kind of guy to appreciate it's pace -but I couldn't wait for it to end.

The sound design was really good. However, I just didn't care for it that much. Yes, I'm sure it was fantastic for it's time. But just as good CG doesn't make a good film today -good sound design doesn't make a good film for back then.

All in all, not my cup of tea.
