Just saw the commercial for Garden State on television. The promo quote was "this summer's Lost in Translation." I was thinking about going to see Garden State, but that endorsement gives a big warning sign for me.
I really wanted to like Lost in Translation, but it just made me impatient. It reminded me of a funky, cooler, thrift-store version of Scent of a Green Papaya. Green Papaya made me want to tear my eyeballs out. I'm all for unspoken moments, lost chances, roads not taken blah blah blah but 2 hours of it? Too much, I tell ya, it's too much.
