I
don't
think
you
could
find
a
bleaker
film
about
the
educational
system
--
or
life
itself.
Still
very
rewarding,
though.
I
found
it
hard
to
get
into
this
movie
because
the
fact
that
the
star
looked
like
a
Scandinavian
Steve
Buscemi
was
distracting.
Complicated
and
harrowing
character
study
set
in
the
Belgian
cattle
mafia.
Excellent
debut
by
director
Michael
R.
Roskam.
Wasn't
expecting
Will
Ferrell's
Spanish
to
be
better
than
the
movie.
