First Bad movie of 2000

Rating: 2/10 (14 February 2000)

I wasnt expecting a lot when I went in but boy was I dissapointed in this movie.What a mess.I'm still trying to figure out what Danny Boyle was trying to say. Characters were unlikable, story was not interesting and Leo was annoying. I used to love him in movies like Boys life and Whats Eating Gilbert Grape but he just is in coast mode now. He was wrong for the lead and its clear he was picked for box office appeal only. I dont mind characters that are hard to understand or even ones you dont agree with (Complex?)but I didnt like any of these people.
Maybe the young french guy who was the original B.F of the girl could have done better, I dont know but I just left the theatre, as did my friend thinking this was a waste of money. Back to the Independents!!!
