wasnt what i expected

Rating: Null/10 (26 August 2000)

from seeing the trailer then watching the film i was quite shocked that the trailer seemed to portray a different movie altogether the trailer made it seem that a island that a group of young travellers were staying on was been attacked from a different group of people and they were there to defend it. Obviously the film was totally different which wasnt a bad thing as i was pleasantly surprised i thought that leo had just pulled off a lucky break with titanic then everything was going to be downhill but despite what the critics said i thought it was very good everything that danny boyle has done has been very unique and this was the case once again. This has probably one of the best sets in any movie the beatiful beaches of thailand which makes you want to pack up and head off the acting abilities of leo really our quite good and the rest of the crew were definatley up to scratch robert carlyle was brilliant as basically a looney the whole story was very grabbing and the camera work was very good from the likes of sweeping down waterfalls and over the amazing rich blue sea's. Now one scene which i didnt understand was the part where richard goes to get some supplies with another women who was of no competition with francene who he had in his grab i cant understand why he risked that and ended losing her by sleeping with this girl if she was a beautiful looking girl then ok maybe but she wasnt. The good thing about the ending in one outlook was that he didnt get the girl like typical films everyone should watch before passing judgement like i did lets hope that the rest of leos films match this quality
