| Re: What was the last movie you saw? The Adventures of Baron Munchausen. While not the worst thing I've ever seen, this was very disappointing - I can see how someone might love it but it had no (positive) effect on me at all. (IMO, the opening scenes and the introduction of the "two worlds" are so mishandled that the movie would just lumber along and never take flight even if it weren't holding itself down every step of the way.) When it does the obligatory fantasy things, they're naturally uninspired and, if it tries anything of itself, it's worse. No characters to get attached to, despite all the trying. Decent enough theme but not worth sitting through two hours of offputting semi-random fancies.
Also a waste of Jonathan Pryce and Uma Thurman (plot/character wise) and a something-bad if not a "waste" of Robin Williams. |
