The Mule (2014)
3/10
Will he poop or will he not?
2 January 2015
An average man goes to Thailand after winning a holiday through his football team's lottery. What he does not know is that he is being set up and the purpose of his trip is to bring drugs into Australia. When he finally gets back to down under, the police gets hold of him as they suspect he might be smuggling cocaine or heroine into the country. Since he refuses to have an X Ray taken, he is kept in police custody in a hotel room for about 10 days.

Whether or not this sounds like an interesting subject to you, from the fifteenth minute until the end, the only thing you see is a man lying in bed who makes the utmost effort to not go to the loo while the police wait by his bed. Nothing else happens. If you don't believe me, watch it. When you do, you'll agree that the movie should have been called "The longest poop refusal". And as a subject for a movie, after a few minutes it's start to get a little boring. It it's really based on real events, then the original story is not good enough to make it into a film. Sorry!
