if you haven't seen it.............watch it.....

Rating: 10/10 (26 December 2006)

Set against a Montana backdrop , this movie is beautifully made and just oozes.......epic......the cast have been ideally suited to the roles, however, Aidan Quinn's remarks/tones of voice at certain points in the film are a little unrealistic and his role as the eldest of the three brothers could have been better cast. Julia Ormond manages to tug on the heart strings and Brad Pitt gives a great performance. Anthony Hopkins again provides a flawless performance............absolute quality acting....say no more. This for me was the film of the 90's, it sweeps you up and takes you along for the epic ride leaving you both emotionally moved and thoroughly pleased that time was taken to sit and watch it.
