Confusing and quite boring. 2/10

Rating: 2/10 (8 September 2013)

Review: I really tried my best to get into this 3 hour epic movie, but I just wasn't interested in what the hell was happening. It's does get top marks for the way it looks, but the storyline was way too confusing, and bloody long. I didn't have a clue what was going on but I think that the moral of the story was, different circumstances can change the course of your life, I think. I don't know why the director had to make it so complicated, and judging by the money that it made, the audiences didn't take to this movie either. This has to go down as one of the most disappointing movies made by Tom Hanks ever, which is a shame because he isn't taking that many projects lately. Maybe if someone could explain the 6 different stories because I just didn't get it. Very Disappointing!
Round-Up: This movie must have been a nightmare to make because of the 6 periods that it covers and the many different actors that were use. The make-up looked a bit ridiculous and the storyline seemed like they were making it up as they were going along. I did hear that the book was much better than the film and that it was easier to understand, but there is no way that I am going to put myself through that project again. It would have been a much better movie if the director just concentrated on one of the 6 different decades, but I suppose that, that wouldn't have been true to the book. You can really tell that the makers of the Matrix had something to do with this film because they made the last 2 movies in that franchise just as confusing.
Budget: $102million Worldwide Gross: $130million
I recommend this movie to people who like there fantasy/adventure movies, but prepare to get pushed from one decade to the next. 2/10
