Good Movie....Not Great

Rating: 7/10 (12 June 2004)

Well I can Be quick and Spoiler proof....its a movie full of hilarious one liners....and a hooky sob story....that in the end didn't even wrap up to well...
Honestly, it's not a bad movie, I enjoyed it. Its fun to watch, but in no way would I say it has any award potential. I enjoyed watching it once; I would never sit though all 2 dragged out hours of it again. The Story is there, it develops a little bit, but in the end it's just a cheesy one liner fest. Yes he doesn't know English...he misinterprets English and does something funny Harahan....he finds out you can make money by returning hand carts....hahahahaha....its nothing NEW though...just a bunch of cheap gags...
Then we have these randomly placed Sentimental drama parts that just took away from the whole comedy aspect of the movie. I understand like the reason he was in America part...put some of the other areas, such as Cathera Zita Jones's Character unnecessary...and took away from the story.
So that's about it... I gave it a 7, because I laughed I had a good time, I will NEVER see it again.
P.S. Spielberg REALLY overdid the Lighting behind the characters so be ready for lots of Silhouettes.
