HeraldRae what a joke
GurlyIamBeach Instant Favorite.
Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
tmlhash I love this movie. It is one of my favorite movies I will get no tired watching it again and again. I have hated and fallen in love with Walter Fane, same as Kitty did. Edward Norton played that character simply perfect. Each simple detail on the way he moved, walked, watched, breathed added the right value/element to the character and transmitted plenty of emotions. Naomi Watts!!! Oh another excellent actor to this movie. I hated the frivolous Kitty at first, but than I hated Walter for "making it pay" to well matured Kitty later. Excellent movie in every single detail.
snowscu While the book is fascinating. The movie is so weird. I am quite disappointed about the start of the movie, which was so abrupt. The scenes about China, so weird and not true at all.
srhope-34746 So far I've not been able to watch more than the first few scenes. Not owing to any gruesome horror, but because I feel I've seen this film many times before. I stopped at the scene in the Chinese theatre. When Liev Schreiber's character tells Watts about the theatrical plot, he is so obviously telling her what she feels about her mistaken marriage, it is the writer and director choosing to verbalise rather than let the characters show through their actions and emotions. Too clumsy and obvious to generate real feelings in me at least.
pancakesincandyland The title pulled me into this movie. I'd hoped that the intriguing cover would keep up in the movie, and it totally did! A great movie while you're in need of something with passion, and kindness in the midst of tragedy. I didn't give it a 10 because of the ending. When she sees Charlie again I wanted her to punch him right in the street. I wish the main couple could have had the cheesy long happy life ending and somehow he would find out the baby is his. Oh well! A very good movie. I hope you enjoy the creativity of the camera angles and well written lines in this movie as much as I did. Beautifully made, I will definitely be watching it again.
