What a disaster!

Rating: 1/10 (12 August 2005)

One of the biggest disappointments this year. After all the buzz and 5 Oscars I expected some really huge impact on me & a very strong story. Well, right from the beginning I was asking myself "Oh my, this is REALLY the best movie of the year???"... Maybe I'm dull, but I cannot see anything new in the film, on the contrary. God, we've seen so many scenes so similar to this, that I couldn't believe that "such a director" as Clint Eastwood directed it! Why did Hilary win the prize? She did nothing, again, but some boxing, speaking with Southern-American accent and lying in bed!!! Is this worth an Oscar? You know, I'm quite convinced that if it hadn't been for Eastwood sitting on the director's chair, all the critics would have been very negative and no-one would have appreciated this film. For me it's nothing but cliché plot and dialogs seen thousand times before, with no profound meaning or message. Sorry guys.
