What an utter pile of crap this was. I don't think I've known anyone who can talk non stop for 80 minutes about nothing. I'm serious, do people like this really exist? Bloody hell, I hope I don't meet any of them, they would drive me nuts! Especially someone like Celine, save-the-world, left wing do-gooders, who have a very narrow, simple take on the world and are much too fond of spouting their own opinions.

Anyway, the fact the 'characters' were completely bland and 2D, wasn't the only thing that was terrible about this film. The dialogue was forced, as was the so called 'acting' that went along with it. Delpy was a pain to watch, she looked awkward, and the way she spoke seemed so unrealistic (she sounded like she putting on an American accent). Hawke didn't really do anything in this film instead look like a teenaged boy trying to get laid. Not only that, it was utterly boring, I found myself looking away or looking at my finger nails. I watched it up until they got to her apartment, then I just had it on in the background while I typed this up. Not good.

There was no structure or plot, no build up, or build down, no development...besides them going to her apartment and she cringingly doing a Nina Simone impression. And that was it! Urgh! Please, get over yourselves! Oh, and before you start yelling at the screen all you lovers of this movie, I have seen the prequel Before Sunrise. That was marginally better than this cringe fest.

I hate Linklater films. They are so puerile, lazy, self-indulgent, trite, contrived, he tries too hard to convey something deep or heart felt, but all that comes across is something pointless, fake and unnatural. You know those people who love the sound of their own voice?...well I can imagine if I ever met Linklater, he would be one of these people. God help us!

This was one of many films listed by that guy I met, along with Sex & Lucia. This is not looking good, I pretty much hate everything he loves with a few exceptions. Oh well, maybe this is a good place to start a heated discussion - nothing I like better. Oh, when I first met him, he even suggested we go to Vienna!
