Everything is Illuminated
An adaptation of the novel by Jonathan Safran Foer in which although the viewer understands what's being said, it feels like there's a lot missing. The locations are stunning, beautifully filmed, and the performances convincing, however Eugene Hütz seems laboured and wooden at times. The soundtrack is terrific, but in places there's just too much of it, some scenes feeling like a long series of music videos, others having their power diminished by plinky sad guitar music.
