Whilst empathising with the protagonist, I felt that a golden opportunity was missed to make a statement.
Either this could have been a gritty social comment or a witty irony. As it is the film is simply a meaningless dirge. None of the characters is easy to bond with as they are all just plain nasty or sad.
If you are prone to depression this will have you reaching for the window. It starts off on a low and goes down hill from there.
If you can bear to listen to the title music without gaining a headache, the opening lines are sufficient for you to understand the entire movie. It is so predictable that it need only be summarised in a single word.
Yawn.
