Review of Dust

Dust (I) (2001)
1/10
Power blackout as end credits began; perfect metaphor
26 December 2012
This abomination reminded me of Heaven's Gate -- not the film, just the feeling of sitting through it.

What starts out interesting and promising degenerates into pointless, unfathomable mush. However, the fact that the two lead actors wail and shriek a lot does seem a clever way to disguise that (1) they are British w/appropriate accents and (2) the script is inane.

I need to write some more lines, but that would just waste words so I will repeat paragraph 2:

The director hasn't worked since 2010. This probably does not include his janitorial work, for which he is eminently qualified.

What a mess!
