I wasn't really looking forward to it but by about halfway through the movie, I really was enjoying it a lot more than I thought I would. However, the 2nd half of the movie didn't interest me hardly at all and I was happy when it ended. Never read King Lear (which this movie was based on) but it seems like an interesting story
Walk the Line ** 1/2
I agree with long_lost_corleone's review. I felt like I was watching Ray almost all over again and it was quite depressing. However, I agree that Joaquin Phoenix & Reese Weatherspoon did fantastic jobs and should get at least Oscar nods, if not the awards themselves. I'd definitely see it again but again I was disappointed.
