"Boring" is a description of a thing's effects, not the thing itself. Tartovsky's movies are not boring for me, so I find your description completely inaccurate. There is nothing inherently boring in them, just things that don't appeal to all audiences. A lot of people might find them boring (and that's fine), but that's a description of their response, not the movie. It's better to describe the movie as "slow", "having no action", or "driven by dialog and long scenes of nature", or, if you must, "a movie most people would find boring". These are objectively true. Saying the movie is "boring" not objectively true. It is a subjective description.
