Fell asleep...

Rating: 4/10 (3 January 2008)

This film did not get a lower score simply because of James McAvoy. He carried what little part of this film that he could. Keira was not a believable as a young woman caught in a deeply passionate love for Robbie. She played Cecelia as if Robbie was a passing fancy and nothing more. I just didn't feel the passion in their relationship. So to me this was a boring movie. I could have done without the extra footage of Keira lounging around her vanity smoking cigarettes. It seemed like they were filming a Chanel commercial most of the time with Keira. I am glad I saw the movie so that I can complain if this movie actually wins any Academy Awards for acting, directing or best picture.
