from Kansas City
Anytime the main character has to talk the audience through the storyline, you know you're in trouble and there was way too much of that kind of thing happening in this movie. Cate Blanchett's accent was ridiculous (remember Natasha from Rocky and Bullwinkle?) and they played Mexican music during the market scene in Cuzco, Peru! Hasn't Hollywood figured out that the viewing public is more worldly than we have ever been? I enjoyed the period shots - old cars, clothes, and the "fakeness" of the backgrounds during some of the scenes. It made me feel like I was really watching a movie from the 50s. I also liked the whole "Reds" theme and nuclear bomb testing. It is a sad time in our nation's history that is often overlooked these days.
Not much to be missed by seeing this one at home. Save your money!
No, I do not recommend this movie.
