So I was thinking I would have had more interest in seeing this
film, especially since it starred one of my favorite pieces of eye candy Brad
Pitt. However I watched the trailer and was like..."eh...ok". Don't
get me wrong, the trailer wasn't bad, but it wasn't enough to have me
anticipating its release. So I went into the theater hoping my feelings about
the trailer were wrong and that I would walk out of the theater pleasantly
surprised...
I wasn't wrong, I
was right. The movie was just ok. I think I was expecting more thriller,
but this movie was instead all romance. Don't get me wrong, I love romantic
films, but this movie was being advertised as more of a thriller, and the
thrills were few. Marion Cotillard's performance blew me away, and Brad Pitt
just looked awkward at times, especially in the romantic scenes. His
performance didn't really get good to me until the middle to the end of the
movie, that's when he seemed more comfortable with his character. This movie
disappointed in the action scenes, the few there were. This movie lacked in
power, and felt too fluffy.
I didn't hate this
movie, but I wish it had more. There was very little that connected me to this
film. I was waiting for the buildup, but it was mild and unnoticeable. There
was far too much romance, and it could have used more thrills...C+
