About What I Expected
PostedJuly 18, 2009
greatcritic
from NY
After seeing the trailers for this movie, I was extremely excited to see it. However, the movie was not nearly as epic as the trailers made it out to be. It was actually quite anticlimactic, due to the fact that the entire battle at the end was cut out. I was also expecting much more from the book to be in this movie, but I was a bit disappointed. For example, the use of magic without speaking is an important part of the book that is not mentioned in the movie. All in all however, I think that they did the best that they could, and I am ready to see it again.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Not as Good as the Commercial

I came into the theater thinking I would be seeing a decent movie that wouldn't be a waste of $10.50. Unfortunately, I thought wrong. As my friend said, a more apt name for this movie would be "Pointless Bloody Violence with a Lot of Cursing". I'm not exaggerating when I say the f-word was used almost every five seconds. I got the feeling that the script was written in a few hours. Whoever wrote it must have connections. And why would famous actors like Morgan Freeman and Angelina Jolie bother with a movie like this? Didn't they read the script? All in all, this movie made me feel utterly stupid.
No, I do not recommend this movie.
