Most overhyped movie of the year

Rating: 6/10 (1 September 2002)

After trailers extolling the prizes awarded to the actors and declaring it the movie of the year the last thing i was expecting was an average movie. I also wasnt expecting Robin Williams to be so bad, misreading his character so completely and at times obviously reading from an autocue, harsh yes but true. This movie provided no tension with stuff happening constantly just when they needed to happen to move the plot forward. An obvious ending appeared tacked on for some action only. Avoid if you dont want to fall asleep.
