Petruchio

I've been reading through some of the comments that people are leaving and I have to disagree with most of them. I thought the movie had a very strong plot (which is what most are saying it doesn't have) I really liked the story that was written (By Billy Bob at best, which I didn't know until I seen the movie) and the acting was par none. I even liked Keanu Reeves. That sames something because I think he's the worst actor on the face of the planet... behind Stephen Seagul that is.

It's probably because I'm a HUGE fan of thrillers that I liked this movie so much. I just love when a movie keeps you guessing. This movie did that well. It introduced all the characters and then made you believe that every single one of them could have been the criminal. Very well done.

I wouldn't put this movie in my top 10, or maybe even top 50 list of movies I love... but I do say that it's very enjoyable. Of course, there are hardly any movies that I hate...

Okay... so I waited and waited and waited to see this movie? Why? I'm not sure. I just kept on getting something else above it I guess. That crappy thing is.. the movie is fantastic. Does that make sense? Crappy... fantastic? Anyway...

It wasn't until I sat down to watch this movie that I learnt it was adapted from Homers epic poem... which is Brilliant in itself. And what a terrific adaptation it was. Every single character that were created were wonderful and the actors that portrayed them were brilliant. George Clooney especially. I really think he should stick to these off beat roles and stay far away from Batman and characters similar to that.

The story itself is a tale of 3 somewhat stupid people caught in a huge amount of misadventures. This leads to a bunch of hilarity and a story line that'll keep you watching and interested.

Do I even have to mention the soundtrack? I dont' think so, because if you seen it.. you know. If you haven't yet... you will when you do. Beautiful sounds and a great use of old time songage (is that a word? I don't think so.. oh well).

Fantastic movie... in all aspects.

This movie (Well, I can't really say that it's just a movie, because it's more of a story... a tale... based on true life events) takes a man who brought 90% of the cocaine market to the states and then makes you feel sorry for him. What a world.

I have to say that this movie (this tale) was great. Yes, it was very long and sometimes dragged out (not a lot) but it really had it's great moments throughout. I found it too be a great new tale because it took the life of a criminal and made you like him. Johnny Depp portrays the crook and again shows the world just how good he is. Penelope Cruz is amazing in this movie. She really portrays her character quite brilliantly... if I do say so myself.

The acting and story aren't what made this movie so enjoyable for me though. The directors vision is what did it. There were some really great shots and scenes throughout this movie. Cinimatically, it was brilliant. I remember one scene that stuck me now. Johnnys character was in prison for the first time and he meets his would be partner. The scene fades from Character to character as they both lay in their beds talking. Great scene. I loved it and it will always stick in my mind. There are pletty of grea quality shots that should take away from this movie if you see it.

Spare the couple of hours to see this one. I trust you will like it. I did.
