Featured reviews
There are the exact the same words but the meaning is different. There are not close ups from eyes or hands. There is no emotion there are just words.
So powerful was the original, so shallow is the remake. Even the little joke in the beginning, when Julianne Moore shows the view to Isabel. "At a clear day you can see New Jersey but who wants to see that" doesn't make sense here!
There is no undercurrent in this movie, no subtleties that makes the original so emotional! Don't make a remake of everything. Americans can't make remakes of European movies because they miss the same background in everything
It's ok, but the Danish movie is just SO good. Same screenwriter but it's missing the beautiful subtlety of the close ups at hands and eyes that made the acting so special in the Danish one. It's missing Sigur Rós. Not everything should have a remake.
I am not sure why folks are trashing this film. Its a fine movie. The acting is stellar. Julianne Moore and Michelle Williams are outstanding and the story is good. I thought the pacing was good with respect to character growth and allowing the story to unfold. I definitely want to see the Danish version now!
The post wedding period is eventful, but the intensity doesn't compare to the original. The characters in this film comes across as selfish and egoistic. Michelle William's character appears very ungrateful, and I have a big big problem with her attitude towards the donation.
I didn't know this was a remake of a Danish film. Now I understand why so many things seem shallow. None of the film crew internalize the story, hence could not make the audience believe. My five points are for the sake of good acting of Julianne Moore and nice photography. The film was really boring.
