Note to all: If you ever go see Mona Lisa Smile, sneak out and see a better movie. Like The Butterfly Effect!

Rating: 10/10 (30 March 2004)

Basically, me and a couple mates had seen ads for The Butterfly Effect on T.V. Seeing as it was the usual, boring Australian weekend we thought it'd be a good idea to go see it. Being underage and all, we couldn't just waltz up and ask for 4 tickets to The Butterfly Effect. I can't believe I had to sit through 20 minutes of Mona Lisa Smile, waiting for a good time to sneakety-sneak my way to The Butterfly Effect. Anyway.
When I got into the theatre, we were about 20 minutes into the movie, so I missed out on what exactly The Butterfly Effect was and how Ashton Kutcher got it. About 10 minutes after arriving, we were confronted by quite a disturbing scene (not mention in case for spoilers) which made me squirm. Apart from that, I was really enjoying the movie. The movie had it's fair share of twists and tear jerkers, which I felt were delivered perfectly. I severely doubted Ashton Kutcher's serious acting skills but this movie proved me wrong. Overall, even though I was still pretty confused, I thought The Butterfly Effect was a good movie, which I will probably buy on DVD.
9/10
