the emperor's buck naked

Rating: 6/10 (9 January 2002)

After searching this film on IMDB I found that it has been voted #1! Number one? Sorry people, this movie is not the best film of all time. Actually, it is fairly mediocre.
Uninteresting two dimensional characters plod along for over three hours, engaging in one boring special effects battle after another. It occurred to me that you could string most of those scenes in any order you wanted and it wouldn't matter. I didn't care about any of the characters. They were more interesting in the book - more charming and more humorous (though the novel is overrated as well).
Hopefully, as time passes, and marketing budgets disappear, this undeserved ranking will drop slowly to the depths of other average and common films.
