To me, it looks like a broken pipe line with not much to stick it up

Rating: 7/10 (28 February 2008)

Certainly not a boring movie, it lacks almost all the elements necessary to keep you scotched to your seat. Day-Lewis - he's really everywhere nowadays - may be great, but sometimes he really looks like "the man you would like to hate". I think the trouble comes from Upton Sinclair's novel, he was not a genius and almost drowned Eisenstein'sattempts to film in the America of the early-thirties.I wish I could name this one at least the best movie of the starting year, but I'll rather give my preference to SLEUTH (Kenneth Branagh's version). Regarding the leading interpreters of this year's, my preference goes to the trio Tom Hanks-Julia Roberts-Philip Seymour Hoffman.Harry Carasso,Paris, France
