The Emperor has no clothes

Rating: 6/10 (20 February 1999)

Having seen thousands and thousands of films in my life, I am slightly insulted at the theory that to not like this film is to not understand this film. This is simply not the case. I understood the film, and the introspective story it tells. It is trying to be bigger than it is. I go to the movies to be entertained. I don't mind thinking, but I don't think we need to think that much. The pace was too slow in any event. Would have made a better mini-series on television.
