General : Cinema “Revolutionary Road”

We went to our local Vue Cinema to watch the movie “Revolutionary Road” last Saturday

The critics will doubtless describe it as a “thoughtful drama” but we both thought it depressing, sluggish and boring !

Our best hope is that the film wins an Oscar, then we win a couple of free cinema tickets to go see something decent !  (Saw a trailer for “The Boat That Rocked” which looks like a must see for me :-) )

In fairness, I would say it was well acted and had some story to follow, but you would get just as good acting, story and more satisfaction from watching Coronation Street   At least the soaps throw in some humour and you don't have to sit there for 2 hours…..
