It was the implementation mostly that I disliked. The film would suddenly go silent, there would be a pause, then the narrator would say his piece, and the film would continue. Perhaps because I wasn't listening to the speech, and only paying attention to the ambient noises and music, that I noticed their absence more, but I just found it annoying. It seemed to break up the continuity, and I felt it could have been integrated better. Also, some parts of the narration seemed a little lengthy, due to the inclusion of unnecessary information.
Spoiler:e.g. the part about the car crash that happened two years prior and the dead chickens etc.
It's not that I'm fundamentally against narration or anything, and I agree that a lot of details pertinent to the story were revealed in it, I just felt it could have been done better in this instance.
