I was so bummed out by this movie. I didn't feel as though I truly experienced anything in any of the countries. Where was the "FOOD" in Italy? India was pointless. Javier Bardem saved the movie because I felt like someone was having a real experience when he came on the screen with Julia.
I read the book but had incredibly low expectations from the movie because I read the book. Five girlfriends went to see it and we all were bummed out by the movie. It felt like the movie was in fast forward the entire time. Never stayed with one moment or experience long enough for us to feel anything. I cared about nothing in that movie except for Javier Bardem.
