siff: saturn in opposition

The first movie of this weekend was Saturn in Opposition, an Italian issue-film disguised as a sappy bisexual soap-opera. The characters, even the ones you’re supposed to dislike, are likable enough and pretty well acted. The main event — the young protagonist in a coma — is straight out of the soaps, as are the endless supply of pretty people.

Rating withheld because the theatre was evacuated 5-10 mins before the end, likely because of some retard pulling the fire alarm. Honestly though, I probably would have given it something in the mid-range. I’m not going to buy it on DVD or pay another $8 to see the end.
