Complete Waste of Budget

Rating: 1/10 (13 August 1998)

Let me Start by saying I really, truly, and without a doubt mean every word I am going to say here:
What is so special about this movie?!@# This has got to be the longest, most pathetic, boring excuse for Oscar Bait I have ever seen, and that's even comparing it to some of the other doozies that Hollywood has honored in the past. First of all, Leonardo Can't act to save his life. What was the official word at the casting call? "Must be able to stand in front of the camera and bring in teenage women"? And Kate Winslet, who I have respected in the past, completely lost her abilities as well. You wait two hours for anything to happen, and when it does, it happens so slowly that I hardly even noticed. As for the special Effects, I've seen better Special Effects in movies with MUCH smaller budgets. Want to know what the best part of the movie was? When I went to go see it, right before the end credits, the film melted and the projector caught on fire. I was quite happy to realise that a copy had been partially destroyed. This is a terrible excuse for a film. How can you not agree when the machinery showing it commits suicide??
