........Not one of the superlatives you earlier used. I don't recall that mild adjective being used by either of us. I don't watch Herzog for amusement.Maybe I was amused, now that you mention it, but I'm not sure that's the accolade this film hoped for.
Like I said I've seen most of this before. And I daresay so have you. Really, Tin, I admire your film acumen but I don't see your thinking this is one of his better films
Greatness warrants repeated watchings; is this on your rewatch list? Not mine. But I can easily name 10 more of Herzog's that are. Some I've seen a half dozen times.
As to the applause of your theater mates being reason for me or anyone to automatically praise a movie........did you join in? Just because the crowd did? Was it an American crowd? LOL. A Medved crowd; a Palin crowd, most likely, save you.
