Has it started yet?

Rating: 1/10 (4 November 2002)

I have to say that is the most disappointing film that I have ever seen - yes even more so than Blame It On The Bellboy! It rates only second to The Blair Witch Project as far as overhyping goes. The plot was shaky and extraordinarily slow moving (if not non-existent), the characters unbelievable, the acting hammy and laughable and the soundtrack/score (normally very good for Kubrick) a little lacklustre. It seemed to me to be a vehicle for attractive naked people, which was the only enjoyable aspect of the film. What gratification Nicole Kidman may have got from getting her short and curlies out I don't see.
