Talk about boring

Rating: 5/10 (17 June 2009)

Rented this movie on DVD because I knew I wouldn't have paid big bucks to see it. Let's just say I have never been so bored in my entire life. This movie moves so slowly that I almost turned it off before it was over. It was like watching Forest Grump in slow motion. Yes Brad was his beautiful self, even when he was old and Cate Blanchett was good, I guess though I really hated her character at lot. Also I guessed the ending before it happened and the old this is happening during a hurricane thing didn't work for me. Also the clock was just a distraction that really did n't add anything to the story. I wished I had read the original story to see exactly what the author was trying to say about life. I have a feeling that the story about the clock maker was better explained as I think his reasoning for making the clock was the real point; but I think the film maker missed it. He was too busy making Brad Pitt age backward.
