Coming from the same guy who did The Last Emperor (a movie I really like), I expected to like this movie more than I did. As it turns out, I didn't like it at all. It had the feel of a stage production, and just dragged through the storyline in a painful way. Afterward, it was interesting to watch the trailer (on the dvd) to see how it portrayed the film. Basically, the trailer completely misrepresented the movie, and I would have been even more disappointed with this movie had I seen the trailer beforehand. |
