I already saw this movie but, since it was ages ago, I thought I might as well check it out again. Well, I was actually surprised by how little I actually remembered the damned thing which is usually not really a good sign.

"First viewing - Apr. 24th I thought this was leaving Starz this month, so I wanted to catch it before it did...and now it looks like it may not be. Ah well. Once I got past the absurdity of Tom Cruise playing an Irishman, I really enjoyed the film. The story is very well-told, the cast is strong all around, and it got me emotionally invested. I doubt I would have appreciated it back when it came out, so I'm glad I didn't see it before now. It's not a film I'd need to watch twice, but I wouldn't"

An average movie

“I already saw this movie but, since it was ages ago, I thought I might as well check it out again. Well, I was actually surprised by how little I actually remembered the damned thing which is usually not really a good sign. Anyway, I have to admit that I always had some mixed feelings regarding this movie. Indeed, even though it started out as a rather ambitious project (Isn’t it always the case when Tom Cruise is involved?), it didn’t turn out to be really amazing after all. Still, somehow, I can’t really discard the whole thing. Indeed, it was actually a really good story and it could have been a great epic. Furthermore, Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman (who just got married a couple of years before) had tons of chemistry together. Still, even if Cruise was, as usual, quite charismatic” read more
