Eternity@Hiff

I sat through the movie even though half of the people walked out within 30mins of it. I thought that if I could just sit through this movie, maybe I could pick up on something that others missed. I was wrong. I should have left with the crowed. Before buying the tickets, I read the description in the Hiff website, then I watched the trailer. The trailer really grabbed my attention even though I wasn't a fan of watching movies with subtitles. I'll skip to the point; Hiff released the wrong trailer for the "Eternity" on their website.

The trailer I saw for Eternity on the Hiff website was this one-



The movie Eternity that showed was this one -



Hiff messed up the trailer for the 2 movies because it had the same title and were both made in Thailand. They recently changed the trailer from the top one to the second one. If I had seen the second trailer, I might have still watched the movie, but probably left right away.

First of all, the heads and tails of all the clips could have been trimmed by 5-10 seconds; in some cases, maybe even removed. It was filled with long and boring still shots of meaningless sequence. I am not a filmmaker nor am I a professional critic, but I think most people can agree that this was a very dull and boring movie. Second, the movie was made to look as a documentary. The shots were long and boring with people coming in the frame to scoop 4 scoops of rice out of a rice cooker and walking out of the frame, to a guy having a conversation with a girl with long pauses in between conversations as if there were emotions to be expressed without words but THERE WAS NO EMOTION EXPRESSED.

Maybe I am being too critical about this movie. Maybe I missed the best parts while I fell asleep for 10 minutes during the beginning of the film. Maybe the climax was in that beginning part. If not, then I give this movie a 10, out of 100.
