A dissenting opinion:
    I also rented the film on the recommendation of the intrepid duo of
    reviewers and on friends advice.

    It definately consisted of two gentlemen who hadn't seen each other for
    many years and their conversation over dinner.  The verbal imagery was
    quite poignant.

    And I have not been quite so bored with a film before or since.  After
    a short while I wondered why I was watching the dialogue instead of
    participating in one equally as stimulating but infinitely more real and
    believable.  Once I reached that point I tried skipping ahead on the VCR
    to find some meaning to the film.  I didn't find anything.

    The conversation in the movie is great, but so is the conversation of
    a middlingly intelligent friend you haven't seen in a couple of years.
    Instead of spending $2.50 to rent this movie, call up an old friend you
    haven't seen in years and go out.  Spend the $2.50 saved on a drink or
    a couple of cappuccino, or more coffee than your bladder can handle.  And
    talk.  It should be about the same, but you regain an old friend that way.
