mediocre

Rating: 5/10 (27 May 2006)

When i saw the movie I got disappointed. By all the attention it got I expected one helluva movie. It seems more like a movie for children. The plot is basically too simple and the twists are too forced. Halfway through you can predict the ending. And when the ending is undoubtedly clear they prolong it for a good 20 minutes. The screenplay is awful. I've been wanting to read the book for some time but if the movie is bad as the book... At some points the movie just gets ridiculous. I'm a Christian so i could be biased (i hope it's the correct word) on this one, but i think i was objective this time. I also think the movie is made for mediocre public and i (without false modesty) consider myself to be well over the mediocre. The movie is not boring but i expected more. 5/10
