If you liked The English Patient...

Rating: 1/10 (6 May 2009)

I rented this movie with high expectations but found it insufferable and excruciating to sit through. Ponderous and overwrought. I similarly hated The English Patient, just like Elaine on Seinfeld.
Lots of soft-core porn in the beginning. Not my cup of tea, but your mileage may vary. And it only went downhill from there.
Kate Winslet's talents are wasted in this movie, but her performance was the only reason I watched to the end.
The worst scenes were those with Fiennes, who should stick to playing Voldemort and retire from the screen when the Harry Potter films are all finished.
Note to self: Never watch another Ralph Fiennes movie in which he has a nose.
