Excellent movie, but not for everyone

Rating: 10/10 (20 December 2001)

If you take a look at how Entertainment Weekly rated the film, they gave it a D+ and the readers, on average, gave it a C+. If you look at the distribution of these grades, though, you'll notice that they span all the way across the spectrum. Some people will love this movie, some will hate it - just like Moulin Rouge, Memento, American Psycho, Romeo and Juliet (Luhrman's version), and so on. If you liked those movies, you'll like this one. Otherwise, stay home and rent Casablanca.
