The reason I qualified my assessment is that the main characters seem, to me at least, to represent ideas and themes as much as actual human beings. Anton, for example, seems to be the embodiment of indifferent fate, not even malevolent, just random with his coin flip. And he comes with his best deal, which is not a great deal, but it is after all, a deal we all face sooner or later. Real human motivation or emotion was lacking. In that sense, I did not find this movie so much about character as about ideas, although ideas made manifest in human form. Feel free to disagree, the great thing about great movies, and I count this as one, is that they allow multiple interpretations.
