Mixed emotions...

Rating: 6/10 (17 December 1998)

Well... of course I saw the movie on the opening weekend, and I guess I was kinda way to psyched-up, because the flick didn't really live up to my expectations. Hey, it was BIG - and I mean REALLY BIG - beautifully shot, great special effects, fine actors (first time I saw Leonardo, and he was actually okay!) and a really over the top budget... Just too bad the story sucked big-time. I mean, there was absolutely nothing new! It was just one big rewrite of films already shot a hundred times. That's kinda too bad. Well........
