Not Bad

Rating: 8/10 (3 January 2005)

This was an enjoyable little movie that I watched recently. It wasn't what I had expected based on the commercials I had seen, but that can be a positive and in this case it was.
First, I felt that Tom Hank's character was portrayed in a very good light however I didn't see a lot of character development.
Second, I felt that Catherine Zeta-Jones was over billed. While she plays a character that is important to the plot, we don't see a lot of her and in the end the viewer is asking questions about her character.
All in all it's not a bad little movie. No heavy thinking required, it moves along well, and it has a happy ending, although not the ending I was expecting.
