If you didn't get the analogy, that's OK, because this movie is much like it. I think the other reviewers who gave it a 1 were, like myself, constrained by the scale, which does not allow negative scores. If any movie deserved a negative score, this is it. OK, yes, it's comparing life around us to art. And so? I got that in the first few frames. You didn't need to pound me on the head at the end. But IS art like life? Well, no, of course not. Art is selective (which of course proves this movie is NOT art
). Art is ABOUT something. Art is emotionally moving. If (?) the movie is trying to compare itself to Bruegel, then something is really, really out of whack. Sure, Bruegel is painting scenes of everyday life, but they are scenes observed from a certain angle containing a host of details you would not see together in real life. There is humor, etc. etc. I have absolutely no idea what the movie was trying to do other than fill in almost two hours of my time. Unbelievable that I watched it all the way through, but I gave it a fair chance! Be warned! Nothing to see here, move along!!
