I'm glad I only paid for a rental

Rating: Null/10 (16 August 2004)

I would have left the theatre feeling like I had just wasted my money, so I'm glad I waited and only paid $3 for my wife and I to see it. It's unusual when we both agree that we didn't enjoy a movie. It's one of those movies where both of us kept saying: "now ..... is going to happen," and we were usually right.
Characters were unbelievable (Renee and Nicole farming? those two skinny
softies? shouldn't at least one of them have a suntan at the very least?).
Characters were either too good to be true or to evil to even be frightened of. If you like violence, Nicole Kidman naked and a predictable plot that is designed to give you a cheap cry, then spend the $3 and see it. I got this film confused with Cold Creek Manor and rented that at first. It was dreadful, and I promised my wife that Cold Mountain was the one I had tried to rent and that it would be better--it wasn't.
