Apparently im the only one who thought it was a good movie? - And the only one who thought Josh Hartnett wasn't wrong for this role? It was a good movie, I'm not saying it was great or the best, but interesting and the acting was good. I thought Josh was really good as Bucky and played him well. Well, I'm fine with being a minority :) But let me know if anyone else liked this. Oh..Josh - You are hot... I had to be said :)
I like it. It was a nice movie if you are bored and there's nothing on tv.It was a good distracction. Besides, the photography, music, costumes and sets were incredibly beautiful.
I just watched it for the 1st time yesterday. and i agree with you, it wasn't too bad. it was interesting, and it kept my attention, even tho in the begining i was wondering if it would ever get to the murder case. but overall i didn't think that it was too bad! so i am joining the minority group with you. :)
I really enjoyed it. I just watched it now because I'm on a Scarlett Johansson movie marathon lately and I seem to be renting every movie with her in it lately, but I thought it was beautifully shot, the costumes were gorgeous, the story was interesting, and for those who say they couldn't follow it, I'd recommend turning on the subtitles. The only thing that bothered me was the mumbling, but that seems to happen a lot lately, so I automatically turn on subtitles nowadays.

I hear that! So many movies now are hard to follow because everyone barely whispers under their breath, meanwhile all the sound effects are cranked up to the point where someone coming his/her hair sounds like a nuclear war (so far, I think 'Stoker' is the worst when it comes to that). I don't know why that's a trend now, but I blame Brando.
Nope, I enjoyed the movie also, and I even understood it. Although Josh Hartnett may not have the most range I've ever seen in an actor, he does a good job with the roles he's given. I thought he was very good in this, and I found it an interesting study of the characters involved.
See Josh in "Lucky Number Slevin" or "30 days of night". He does a great job in both.
I don't understand what was so difficult to understand about it. Sure, it wasn't great, but SERIOUSLY...how can you say it was terrible or one of the worst movies ever made? That's just and ignorant statement. It was fun, I was entertained, it made me contemplate the actual murder, but it lacked that mise een scene (sp?) that's quite undefinable but makes the film.
