Review: Before Sunset

I just saw Before Sunset, and then rushed home to warn you all.

It's 80 minutes of real-time dialogue between Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy. It's like someone took one of those long Clerks shots of just Dante and Randall talking about crap, stretched it out to an hour and twenty minutes, turned Randall into a French lady, and had them adlib all their lines, specifically instructing them to not be entertaining.

No, seriously, that's it. The whole time I kept expecting something to happen. Anything. Nothing happened. Nothing at all happened in this film apart from some extraordinarily dull conversation. I've had oil changes more film-worthy.

My rating: -$7. They should have paid me to watch this. That shit was hard work.

Update: I have been informed that this fim is a sequel to the 1995 movie Before Sunrise. I have now watched the first film's trailer, and thus am fully qualified to change my rating to...wait, no, it's still crap.
