Not Good - poor man's version of Forrest Gump

Rating: Null/10 (11 January 2004)

Some SPIOLERS................... The main problem I had with the movie is Bloom's stories never really did it for me. A couple of chapters in his life were interesting - I liked his circus experiences and the story of the love of his life. But other than that, despite the fact that Edward was a charming man with a wonderful outlook on life, his stories were just not inspiring enough to generate any sort of emotion. His journey with the giant? The witch? The bank robbery? His days as a salesman? I kept waiting for the stories to actually go somewhere but they really never did.
