This feature movie is a top notch production, well acted, filmed and cut. The score accentuates scenes emotionally very well, without getting the front stage. The scenery is gorgeous, so there is a lot of visual appeal.
The mood is a bit melancholic and the story telling breaks a few rules in an unexpected way. The main character strolls in and out of his own memories and in the beginning and the end of the movie, literally in and out of the movie set.
Should you take your kids to it? Maybe. There is not much violence, although there war scenes. The word sex is mentioned a few times, but nothing more than that. I was more concerned with little ones being bored of the monologue, but unlike the one man stage play, the visuals keep the story very interesting, but still at slow pace.
In conclusion.... I think the closing conclusion drawn by the main character brings the whole thing together very well, if not triumphant.
Bravo!
