Big DISAPPOINTMENT!

Rating: 1/10 (7 February 2004)

This movie was a huge disappointment. The editor of the trailer should be given an award (or shot) for making this movie appear to be entertaining. I appreciated the story & the relationship between the father & son, but more than once during the movie I just kept thinking of how the movie "Magnolia" dealt with the same themes, but in a much superior way. If you liked this movie, and you haven't seen Magnolia, then you should definitely check it out. An All Star cast, great acting, better writing, and all around a better film. I guess the most I can say about Big Fish is that it only succeeded in inspiring me to go & rent Magnolia again. And for that, I am thankful.
