Opening the pre- title sequence of Across the Hall with close-ups had me intrigued. Then the movie, like the Spruce Goose, Howard Hughes' famous wooden airplane with 8 engines, failed to take off. Instead of suffering from too much weight, the script was too light weight... and contained totally boring characters.
If you like boring, whiskey sipping, Prius driving yuppies, you might like this movie. Otherwise forget it.
Lighting, cinema, sound, sound track all very good. Would like this crew for my film.
Director forgot two other ingredients: Character and story.
Want time shifting? Try Christopher Nolan,MOMENTO and Tom Tyker, RUN LOLA RUN. Want two room stories? Try Wachowski Brothers, BOUND. Want character: Try Marc Senter (as Joe Pye) in THE LOST.
Feel free to clean the kitchen, bathroom, and straighten up the living room while playing this movie on your HDTV. Notice I said playing, not watching. And being sloooooow is not the issue if you have good characters worth watching.
Who cares about two vacuous yuppies with 1 week beards. I mean really. If you find these characters in your hotel, don't move across the hall, get another hotel
