What's all the fuss about?

Rating: 1/10 (15 February 2001)

Obviously I missed the point of this movie. After years of people telling me how fantastic it was and noting how high it regularly comes in opinion polls, I finally watched it recently.
Somehow I seem to have come to completely the opposite conclusion to almost everyone else. Maybe my expectations were too high but I was very, very disappointed. The plot was predictable and dull, the directing pretty droll. Not much else I can say about it, other than to ask people if I have missed something key that would alter my perception of this film?
Who am I to go against the vast popularity of this picture? I must be the exception that proves the rule. This (apparently) is a "must see" movie.
