Simply pathetic

Rating: 1/10 (19 March 2005)

There is nothing worth your time about this movie. It simply sucked! with a boring and pointless story, over-acting, over-dramatization with prolonged, superficial and over the top romantic exchanges. As for directing, well...it had to be bad to put together such a lousy product. There was absolutely no true romantic chemistry between Kidman and Law, nor was there any build up for their relationship. I did not feel connected to any of the characters, and there were way too many of them with very short life span, as if the director was trying to con us into liking the movie based on its size. The movie did not move me in any way. It didn't make me feel sad, funny, excited, or entertained. I simply didn't care. Rarely has a movie made me feel so indifferent about its plot or any of its characters. It is worse than day-time soap operas. Cold Mountain wasn't just cold, it was devoid of any redeeming qualities.
