A Da Sappointment

Rating: 7/10 (16 July 2006)

This movie is a significant disappointment. It moves entirely slowly, unlike the book itself. It is tied up in dialog and interactions between characters that destroy the excitement generated by reading the books and extends the movie until it is to long for the story it tells.
Tom Hanks is completely bearable in this movie and that is about all. A very disappointing performance by Hanks and Howard describe this disappointing movie.
This movie should have been rate a 9 or 10 by me, instead it gets a lousy 6. That is a generous rating.
This is a boring movie made from an exciting book.
I think that is somewhat difficult to do. What about it Ron?
