It kind of reminded me of The Ballad of Jack and Rose. It would've been better if there had been more focus on commune life. A lot of it was so vague that it didn't really have any impact. I did like the film though.
I was really surprised to find myself enjoying this film. Although it is in the same vein as Twilight, (star-crossed fantasy lovers blah blah blah ) its funny dialogue, likable character and good acting made it work. Its not perfect and everything seemed a little too convenient. But I loved the setting, the back story and the visual aid that the South provided. I was especially impressed by Emma Thompson who I have never really seen in a role such as this before. I will definitely read the books, hoping the fill in some the spots that irritated/intrigued me during the film.
Bit slow to start but I enjoyed it overall. Matthew Goode finally has a passable American accent. Was Kidman's character even relevant? I would like to see what India did next.
I love this film. There are so many jokes crammed in and the songs are wonderful. The choreography is spot on. I adore Alan Cumming (as ever) and Kristen Bell.
I really like this film and understand the hype, but man do I hate Marlon Brando. I hate him and hate him some more, the over rated bastard. Anyway, Robert Duvall is the star of the show for me but kudos to James Caan. Pacino looks fabulous with that bruise under his eye. I like Diane Keaton but I HATE her in this film. If her character hadn't been in it nothing would have changed, she just wasn't important and the acting was bad. The Coppola family are keystones in the film-making industry and this is just another great example of that.

Alfie is a misogynistic arse. I love Michael Caine but I hated this character. However the film was enjoyable.Movie comment on Beautiful Creatures

Enjoyable to a certain extent. For a film star his life was completely mundane. Sofia still has yet to prove herself for me.Movie comment on Stoker
