Could have been done better

Rating: 2/10 (27 January 2007)

It was hoped that the passage of time would have improved my opinion of this movie. However - it made it worse. Because - Mia Farrow did a lot of acting like a dazed space cadet. Now - it's appropriate for this movie - however - It also gets on my nerves too much. Perhaps - a few short scenes of spaciness would do - then - snap out of hit and hit back! The movie "Exorcist" does this nicely - making it more of a chess game between good & evil. At the time I first saw "Rosemary's Baby" - it aggravated me that all the electricity & Union wages were spent to show a spaced out girl. I could run down to work - see all the spacey people I want & get paid for it !! That could have been kept to a minimum. At least "The Exorcist" people snapped out of it.
Also - it was VERY bothersome at the time that lies & deception seem to be useful to get things done. Regardless how true this is - just for once - I'd love to see truth & honesty gets things done. Tons of movies are made with the use of lies, dishonesty, deception, disloyalty & etc - even when I was little - it was aggravating to watch bullies & liars get their way on screen. Even with a "Hollywood Ending" - it would be nice to view movies with the best forces being honesty & truthful dealings. (perhaps - I'll never become a lawyer).
But - with the passage of time - my view of this movie deteriorated badly - never want to see it again. Views of the Dakota were good - some good scenes - but - it was a terrible waste of perfectly good electricity. Want to reply - I'm at ml2348@att.com
