| Miracle at St. Anna - R | An absolutely terrible movie, in every conceivable way. The music was --way-- overdone. Dark music for the germans, and light music for the "good guys", and creepy music for surprises, and so on. The plot was predictable, unoriginal and uneventful. The movie was ---way--- too long, nearing 3 hours. Everything was unrealistic. This movie had no redeeming quality whatsoever. A complete waste of 3 hours. | February 20, 2009 | N/A | |||

This could have been an amazing movie... but it fell short on a number of levels. [SPOILER AHEAD] Notably, the timeline you're eventually asked to accept doesn't make any sense unless you infer that Henry and Sam are the same character in some delusion, which isn't played out. The visual effects, split in timeline, and so forth, are all wonderfully done. If only there was actually a point to it all, or the conclusion even made sense on any level. The sum total of this movie is similar to taking a whole bunch of possible scripts, deleted scenes, and reshots of the development of some dramatic movie, scrambling them up with no respect to cohesion, plot, or consistency, and then throwing it out into theaters. This was a big letdown. |
