One of the most disappointing movies my husband & I have seen. We are avid movie-goers and have only walked out of 3 movies in our lives. This was one of them. We saw at least 10 other people walk out as well. The movie was extremely dark and very little happened. No excitement or action .The story is told partially by a woman on her death bed, and you can't understand half of what she says. Brad Pitt is good, but his role is the same throughout the film. A positive thing I can say is that the transition of Brad Pitt (most of which we saw in the trailer) was amazing. Also, we enjoyed the popcorn! We were angry, because there are so many good movies out right now, and we mistakenly chose this one. As is often the case, the critics blew it!
No, I do not recommend this movie.

This movie was not at all what I was expecting. I thought the story was well-written, and the acting was very good - but- 90% of the movie was sub-titled. I don't like to "read" an entire movie. Unlike "The Kite Runner", which was partially subtitled, "Under the Same Moon" had very little English. I don't speak Spanish, so I had to literally read the movie. The movie could have used an additional 5 minutes to tie things up. Overall, I was disappointed.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

This was one of the most diappointing films I've ever seen. My husband and I are avid movie goers. We were looking forward to this movie (especially me), based on the rave reviews it received. What a joke!! Atonement is extraordinarily boring. The editing is terrible, you can't understand half of what the characters are saying, and you don't really care. The scenes switch from past to present constantly and are then repeated with boring, unnecessary details. When the movie ends, you're not even sure which parts actually happened. The critics are ridiculous-but we already know that! And - a Golden Globe for best move?!! Who is paying these people?!! Save your time and money! Don't see this movie.
No, I do not recommend this movie.
