CGiii Comment
When a director asks his audience to be patient - they had better have a conclusion that is as spectacular as the wait is boring...all the buses have got to come at once.
Here, the wait is a chore - yes, the cinematography is commendable, the imagery quite pleasing...
But, the story clunks to its dismal anti-climax - disappointing all...but for the diehard, hardcore Egoyan devotees. The long wait results in a bus arriving, it's full!
More disappointing than pretentious.
