That tunnel scene has to be one of the most boring wastes of film stock in all of cinema, and the length of time scientists sit around contemplating their navels at the dinner party while theorizing what's going on off screen takes pretentious cinema to a whole new level. I guess one man's "compelling" is another's "ho-hum", but what the heck, whatever refuels your rocket.BTW, does Snorlaris ever actually end? I'm not asking HOW it ends mind you, because having lost time I'll never be able to recover I'm not that interested now, but after struggling mightily against my eye-lids for such a seemingly interminable length of time I'm curious if this film actually has a conclusion!
