The movie JANE EYRE is competently executed, as one would expect, but completely soulless. That being said, two women sitting in my row were moved to tears.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

My Kind of "Chick Flick"

Couldn't wait to see this movie... thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I could have done without the water torture scene... in the grand scheme really quite mild, but I'm not big on torture scenes of any kind and I don't see where it added anything to the movie. But that was just a hiccup... absolutely loved the action. I was hootin' and hollerin' right along with everyone else. Very entertaining... which is why I go to the movies. (And I can't wait to see RED.)
Yes, I recommend this movie.

I cannot disagree with the critic who thought this was not a good movie... that being said, I laughed and shrieked and snorted throughout the movie... as did the folks all around me. What an absolute hoot! I cried off my makeup, I was laughing so hard. Even my date, who generally only likes "good" movies at art houses, was roaring. This movie is a fun must-see!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Slow Burn

I'm a huge Johnny Depp fan, which tends to skew my objectivity. That being said, my initial reception of the movie was lukewarm... but then I got dragged into it heart and soul. It's got a bit of the slow burn... after you leave the theatre, you want to go back for another look (I'm seeing it again this weekend). I thought Christian Bale's performance was spot on... better than in Dark Knight... and has piqued my interest in seeing Terminator Salvation. And my next comment likely will shock a few folks, but overall I consider this movie to be quite the romantic tale. The movie was much better than "4 stars - good" but I agree with some critics' reviews that the script didn't do justice do its actors' star power.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
