I hate it even more

Rating: 2/10 (19 February 2001)

This bodes not well for the future of the film industry. I don't care if the film is historically inaccurate, but a best-picture nominated film should at least exhibit coherent writing and competent art direction. I guess as long as your decapitating people with swords, you don't have to make a good film to win an oscar. Ken Lonergan must be gnashing his teeth. Oh well, at least Erin Brokovich got nominated. Sigh...
