i've seen this movie on the berlinale in berlin. as for the reputation of that festival i kinda expected a rather boring, but well made movie. the latter turned out to be the problem. with this cast you expect the movie to be well acted: it wasn't. daniel brühl in his worst role ever. i generally like him, but his romance was so... lousy. i didn't believe it for a second. then... the camera, the cut, the script, the... it was just not well made. in the defence of the makers: they chose an interesting story, but then hasted trough it. the point, which the movie was driving too, is actually pretty poor. or maybe neither me nor any of my friends did get it, which would render it futile. granted, im not the guy usually sitting in this kinda movies. but i can only advise u: stay clear!
