Incredibly epic, incredibly dull

Rating: 2/10 (11 May 2004)

Sadly, this film was very dull. I saw a sneak preview of it and the audience seemed to be divided, at the end some people clapped others mumbled how it was boring. In fact several people left half way through. The movie had some good special effects and a lot of the fight sequences were well executed but the characters had no connection. Each actor used their own speaking voice/accent except for Pitt who tried three different ones on separate ocassions. I never felt connected to any character nor did I care about the war. Some of the dialogue was really bad and literally had people laughing out loud during serious moments. I can't recommend this 3 hour bore.
