To everyone who provided this performance of AIDA: Perfect in every way! If life consists of experiences, my life reached a new height at the AMC 30 last Saturday morning. I brought 9 friends with me and they agree. I will relive this performance in my mind many times. I sat on the third row in the center and noticed no camera issue (e.g., too close, focus, etc.). From the music to the intermission segments everything was flawless. Thank you!
Do screenplays really need to stick to a formula as illustated in Syd Field and Blake Snyder's books? This movie supports the argument that they do. It makes me happy to think that this movie was great fun to make. I was in great pain in the theater due to a leg condition which was distracting--being fair. I'll rent the DVD and watch the Andy Garcia and James Cann segments again & again...Ricci, Portman, Hawke...I'm waiting for "LA, I Love You." 4 Stars (but I missed the old formula).
