Ebert was right, but I didn't listen.

Rating: 5/10 (10 July 2005)

I usually agree with Roger, but after seeing his review I thought- "C'mon Roger, It can't be!! I mean were talking about the Minority Report team here!" I callously disregarded Ebert's "Thumbs Down" and went to see the movie anyway. Boy was I WRONG! Roger Ebert was right on the money. This movie limps along for two-odd hours and gets more and more rotten with each minute. Oh, there are moments of great visuals and sounds, but nothing else. I stopped counting plot holes after thirty minutes. One of the biggest was Tim Robbins' character. His contribution was yet another dose of confusion to this already murky mess, and I still have no idea why he was even in the movie to begin with! I found myself pleading for the end, though when it came I must admit that it was neat seeing Gene Barry and Ann Robinson (from the 1953 WOTW) together again after 52 years. Apart from that, it's barely worth a matinée price.
