A bit too SLOW
1 of 1 found this helpful I wouldn't necessarily say this was a bad movie, but it certainly was not what I was expecting. Knightley did an excellent job, as did her two leading men, but good acting does not mean good movie! It seems that this woman lead a very interesting life, and although this film tries to portray that, it doesn't do her justice.
A couple of good action scenes, most of which you've already seen in the previews, but as a whole, this movie moved a little too slow to keep me interested during the entire film.

Good Movie

This movie is a total chick flick - not a bad thing, but also, nothing to be bragging about. My boyfriend hated it........not only because of the gay guy thing, but also because it was very slow, which I have to admit, it was. This is a love story, a heart-wrenching love story - there are hundreds of love stories out there and because this one was about 2 guys, it was considered "ground-breaking" according to many.
Don't get me wrong, I liked this movie very much. The beauty of the movie, the directing and the performances by Ledger, Gyllenhaal and Williams were all incredible. I just don't think that it deserved all of the extra hype because of its gay story line. The beauty, the directing and the acting, all deserved every bit of hype they got, but the storyline itself did not.
I would say this is a movie that would be enjoyed by any open-minded female out there as well as by many gay males! Ladies, don't be mean like I was and make your significant other watch this film with you - while he may appreciate the performances by the actors, he definitely will not appreciate the movie as a whole!

CASH AT HIS BEST
1 of 1 found this helpful Although I live in L.A., I have always been a country girl at heart. Before I saw the movie "Walk the Line", I had a collection of 3 Johnny Cash cd's - all of which I love, but after seeing the movie, I decided it was time to add this one to my collection. I LOVE IT!!! It is Johnny Cash at his very finest!
