Nothing Brilliant at All...

Rating: 2/10 (11 March 2012)

The film's blocking a B&W cinematography were very good but that was about it... it's amazing how a spin can be put on something and everybody just follows along. I really think that the Weinstein Company put the joke on us... making a mediocre silent movie in 2011 had to be cheap... so Harvey is laughing all the way to the bank. There are hundreds of better silent movies made years ago... what's the buzz here? Giving the film won so many Oscars is really an insult to the other nominated films. Just because the Weinsteins have power in Hollywood isn't enough for me to blindly follow the opinion that this is a "brilliant" film... very far from it.
