A beautiful movie about love, the passage of time and desire.
The photography and direction are GORGEOUS! The beautiful location is amazing, coupled with the contemplative summer shots of the characters enjoying nature.
The movie is also very human in depicting the main character in all her flaws and strenghts, both trying to make her life happen even if it's not exactly what she wanted and dealing with strong desire, like any human could.
It also shows that the power of true love also lies in forgiveness, accepting and talking; and that something can come to make things better from where we least expect it!
It's a discussion of relationships with others, yourself and female empowerment. Very good for anyone not afraid to think.

Good movie, but not recommended to watch if you don't have enough taste.
By the way if you watch the movie in quarter speed, two unicorns pop out from the screen and one of them whispers the meaning of life into your one ear while other licks the other one!
And legend says that if you watch it with 2x speed in reverse then a square mustache appears under your nose and your hand raises in front of you and in the mean time, you become the ultimate cultural authority to decide what to understand when observe an art piece! And the ability of using hyphens anytime, anywhere and anysense would be a bonus!
Watch in peace.

3 stars: 1. Hirviniemi is able to throw some good lines and able to squeeze something out of his character. 2. Some really nice shooting and scenery. 3. After movie you can talk with your friend how lame the movies actually was.
The movie offers very very little. I had no foggiest idea what this piece was actually all about. Perhaps the idea was that people just want to invoke some drama when there's a change.

I often wonder why people bother leaving a review, maybe folk have to much time on their hands...A good example is the first review here...To quote. ''I had no foggiest idea what this piece was actually all about''. Yet still felt obliged to give three stars. Maybe it was genius, but because you don't know, it's rubbish. Well it's not. It's an art movie made with total skill and direction. It empowers women without degrading men. It moves at the perfect pace and, of course those Finns know how to do dark, minimal dialogue, beauty in the location. Inka Kallén is spectacular. But no surprise as she stole the show in All the sins. Aku Louhimies ,YES, I forgive you for rig45, is back on form...thank you for making movies like this. I'm glad Marvel fans don't get it.
I have to admit, I've seen little Finnish cinema in the past; a lot more Swedish and Norwegian. But The Wait is undoubtedly worth the wait (Pardon the pun.). It's a slow - burning drama from director Aku Louhimies, who is apparently quite experienced and who co - wrote this movie along with lead actress Inka Kallén, adapting it from a very well known nineteenth century Finnish novel.
The Wait is not a great movie, but it is a very interesting one for anyone like me, who is keen on seeing more Finnish product. For a start, the summer coastal scenery is just stunning, with the whole movie being set on an unnamed, underpopulated island off the coast, accessible by ferry. Elli (Kallen) lives there along with her preacher husband Mikko. The congregation of his decidedly progressive church as a whole seem to be mostly made up of thirty somethings (unrealistically I'd suggest), bent on having a good time while on their island paradise. Elli and Mikko seem to have a very satisfying marriage, which somewhat predictably suffers some tremors, with the arrival of Phd student Olavi, an old bestie of Mikko's. But seemingly unknown to Mikko, also an old flame of Elli's, who in the past dumped her; an act we find out, she never quite got over.
It's kind of amusing reading other reviews here, which complain, The Wait has no story. Indeed it has a very clear story, but one that isn't filled with reams of dialogue and exposition. Elli initially appears to be a traditional house wife, content to carry out domestic duties such as cooking, cleaning and supporting her husband further with her presence at church, even though we sense she doesn't hold anywhere near as strong religious beliefs. We gradually learn however she is a fiercely independent woman in her own right, who has in the past trod her own definite path in life and who intends to keep doing so in the future. It becomes clear there will be some sort of reckoning between her and Olavi and the suspense comes in attempting to determine how this relationship will impact her marriage.
Inka Kallen in the central role carries the picture on her shoulders and does an excellent job, considering as I mentioned, she doesn't have the large amount of dialogue, that one might expect in a film of this nature. But she is marvellously expressive at communicating her inner self and feelings with her body language and facial impressions. The supporting cast are all very competent.
Without spoiling, I'd like to say, that I appreciated the conclusion in The Wait. It teases moments of melodrama, but deftly avoids tipping over the edge into a morass of standard outcomes. The ending is very satisfying and quite realistic in the context of what has preceded it in this very worthwhile film.
