Lost in Translation...I'd Say So

I watched this movie because of all the Oscar-hype. I can honestly say that I struggled to sit through this. There was no movement in this move. I get the whole two-people meeting in a strange land thing. That's cool, but what else? There was nothing else. They hung out and went home, then hung out again then went home again, then kissed. I though something was going to happen, but nothing happened. It just dragged on and on. Now, not all movies need to have this huge theatrical and Hollywood effect. There are simple films such as Before Sunset where there is absolutely no action and no real drama, but I was able to watch it and actually really like it, because they were able to keep it interesting. The dialogue made the movie. Lost in Translation was just everywhere but nowhere at the same time. I couldn't get into this one.
