Decent, but certainly not Oscar-worthy

Rating: 5/10 (10 October 1999)

What is all of the fuss about? Yes, this is a very well-acted film, but the script definitely is not worthy of such a talented cast. This film was okay, but it is often slow and uninteresting, and it never came close to meeting my expectations. Some scenes seem pointless, others just don't work, and by the end I just didn't really care about this movie anymore. As if we needed more proof, this stands as further evidence that the Motion Picture Academy members tend to have no clue.
