Good handling of a risky film.

Rating: 8/10 (30 October 2001)

Good handling of a risky film to make, 3 hours and doesn't really end up anywhere new, but like The Green Mile, it takes you on a journey, not a very compelling one, but definitely an entertaining one. Brad Pitt, Anthony Hopkins and Claire Forlani are just right for their roles and the film pretty much relies on them to break or make this film, and they make it, excellently. 8/10
