Did I miss something?

Rating: Null/10 (14 August 2004)

I saw this movie with my husband, my girlfriend, and her husband. Halfway through the movie, my girlfriend leaned over and gushed about how wonderful it was, and her husband was nodding his approval. At the end, my own husband was IN TEARS.
I just didn't get it. It was one of the worst movies I have ever seen, so predictable, and it felt like a Harlequin Romance on screen!
I was bored, and the movie seemed to last forever. I absolutely LOVE Jude Law, and he was expressionless and a huge ZERO. I adore Nicole Kidman, and found her to be boring, as well. And the awful southern accent! PUH-LEASE!
Renee Zelweger was the only character I thoroughly enjoyed.
I recall the whole film seeming very blue - reminiscent of the blueish cast of Nicole's movie, The Others, but not nearly as riveting.
Yes, I truly hated this movie, but feel that either I am out in left field or the majority of people have standards set too low, because I may be the ONLY person I know who did NOT like the movie.
