Review of Cold Mountain

Cold Mountain (2003)
5/10
Sorry, didn't like it...
4 April 2004
Was it just me, or did other people also get tired of watching this movie?

Dunno, I liked Renée Zellweger's acting very much; and I like the way Jude Law acts, but I kinda got tired of following all the subplots that this movie had. I guess I can't particularly say what part of this movie I didn't like, but it just didn't get me enough into the story to really feel for the characters.

In a way it reminded me of that dutch film, Antonia's Line (not exactly like it, but similar feeling... I guess the remainder of the cast having dinner in a garden brought that movie back), however the later seemed like a much better movie to me.

Also, the visual stress that the movie shows (sawing of the bull, killing of the goat and neck twisting of the rooster) seemed to substract instead of add to the movie like it should have.

(If I keep going on people are gonna get tired of my message...)

Point is, I can't say that the story was bad, it just managed to loose me and things got reaaaaally boring after that.
