Review of Confessions of a Dangerous Mind

I kind of have mixed feeling about whether or not I actually enjoyed watching this film. I can't quite work out if I liked it or not..

I do know that it was very slow starting. In fact I almost didn't end up watching the whole thing. But I think it was when George Clooney came on and the whole CIA thing started that it got a bit more interesting. I mean, a bit more interesting.

So basically it follows the life of Chuck Barris, creator of TV shows. It actually had some funny parts, not laugh out loud but just some that made me smile and enjoyed the movie for a while. Some parts though were just dull and boring ..and confusing.

It was excellent directing though by George Clooney, and also fantastic acting by him. Sam Rockwell was brilliant though, I hadn't seen any other films with him so it was strange but he did an amazing job. Drew Barrymore was okay, I hadn't really seen her with a role like that before, it just didn't really suit her for some reason.. Oh and Julia Roberts who I hate wasn't any better than I expected.

There are probably lots of people out there who loved this movie, some like me might have found it a bit confusing. It was okay, worth watching, but just not exactly my type of movie. Still, I'm not stopping anyone from seeing this, go watch it for yourself and see if you like it.
