The Broken Key

After 2hrs of watching this movie, I've discovered that the "Secret for eternal life on Earth" is to not watch this movie!

While the CGI is plentiful, the plot is non-existent. It's like they tried to commingle the 'The Celestine Prophecy' with 'The Da Vinci Code' and ended up with mud pie... it's a great big mess of nothing. You can't even look to the dialogue for help, because at times it doesn't even appear to be coming from the actor's lips, giving the impression the movie is dubbed, which it isn't.

If you absolutely have to watch this film, curl up with a good book and let it play in the background. At least then you will have done something worthwhile with your time, otherwise, you can get more entertainment out of watching 'The Tigger Movie'.

The other reviewers are too kind to this truly painful to watch extravaganza that drags on and on yet goes nowhere..The acting is like listening to fingernails on a chalkboard and the music score drones on neverendingly at levels that Almost drown out the dialogue...If I had to find anything in this movie to redeem it,one would struggle.. Even on fastforward this one is hard to stomach...You have been warned..

Never have so many great actors been so betrayed as by this insipid, plotless movie.

Apparently having a great cast doesn't make for a great movie, this movie sadly proves why these movie greats of yesterday are no longer. I guess if you are out of the limelight for too long you lose your skill and this movie just proves it! Giving it two stars is more than it deserves.

Wow this is painful. I thought the movie was dubbed in English at first, because the voice acting is so stiff and monotone. The music is so obnoxious. It's so overdramatic and it often overpowers the dialogue. The story is rather disjointed, I'm hoping it was more due to poor editing, but I doubt it. Maybe they were trying to go for some kind of experimental style? I'm giving it a two as the production value for the sets and special effects were high. Unfortunately it just can't make up for the rest.
