"The Interpreter" is a good film

[realFedUp]

Nicole Kidman is riveting...Sean Penn good,
plot keeps you guessing.

1. I'll have to add that one to the list.

Kingdom of Heaven
Revenge of the Sith
The Interpreter

Looks like I'll be making more than my fair share of trips to the theater this month.

2. agreed

3. It hasn't been very well reviewd, and I wonder if that is in retribution

for the film's message, which is pacifist and pro-UN.

5. Ebert and Roeper gave it a thumbs up

Who gave it poor reviews?

10. The New Yorker and a few others

4. Explain the last scene to me

Why are they in the location where they are. It makes absolutely no sense.

6. I agree....I think it was to get that great shot of the UN....

Didn't make sense any other way.

7. wow

that was the worst movie I have seen in years. Sean Penn does a pathetic acting job. Nicole Kidman was good, but since she had zero chemistry with Sean Penn, the romance of the whole thing failed miserably. As for the action... the climax of the movie is the most horrible anti-climax ever. Its way to long, and frankly I stopped caring after about the first hour. The twist will leave you thinking, "Wait. I paid $10.50 for that??"

8. geez...

I think there may be a couple of opinions
on this film...it's not an Oscar, but
enjoyable and certainly not boring.

9. The critics disagree.

But I guess liberals have to love the movie since its loosely UN-based. :)

11. My liking it didn't have much to do with a pro or con UN view

I never think of respecting the UN as
a liberal or conservative viewpoint...
unless some freeps want to make it
divisive.
