Horrible overrated movie.

Rating: 3/10 (29 January 2009)

Was so so so bad. What a horrible movie. My girlfriend and I could not wait till it ended. After the movie was over half of the theater was laughing, and this by no means was a comedy. There were multiple parts in the movie that were not suppose to be funny but people were cracking up! Imagine a horror movie so bad you laugh at it - that's what this is like. What a piece of garbage. Kate Winslet best actress? What a joke.
The movie has no plot and proves nothing. It is slow and builds into...NOTHING. The acting is good at best, and over done at that, and cannot save this film. There is absolutely NO CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT! Speaking of which, there are characters that make no sense. Especially a "mentally ill" guy that is in here for no reason. It takes place in the 1950s, why? They could have saved money on customs and have had this take place in present time. The score for the film is absolutely atrocious. They kept playing the same thing over and over again. One of the worst parts in the movie is when Kate Winslet is dancing to MUSIC and then they cut into the score of the movie. Why? She is dancing and now you're playing slow music? It makes no sense.
not even rent worthy.
I'm reading other reviews on IMDb and I see not only the people in the theater I was at were laughing at it, but other people on IMDb as well.
