Interesting sets, beautifully locations, wooden characters. Too much of the story takes places in trains, a prison and the countryside. I really wish more of the plot had taken place in the hotel.
Following a confusing beginning (there is a double flashback), the story took off without any real direction or reason. When the movie ended, my feeling was "is that it?" All the ingredients were there but the cake didn't rise.
Still, I'm not sorry I saw the movie. It was different and that's always refreshing in a time of cookie-cutter plots.
