There must be something wrong with me because I was completely bored by "Ran". And I watch a lot of foreign movies.

Re: "I was completely bored by "Ran"."

I'm sorry I can't help you with that. :-)

When I saw it the first time I was mesmerized. Since I was aware it was based on King Lear there was a point in the movie when I realized the end was near so I glanced at my watch and realized we had been watching for nearly 2 hours. It seemed like we had just walked in 15 min earlier. Visually it was a work of art for that alone, and the touch of Kabuki theater was very exotic. As you can see I loved it.
