Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.
Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.
Cissy Évelyne It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
plet-54046 Don't waste your time. Nothing interesting about this film at all
bestvisions When a preview begins with "From acclaimed director...", it sets itself up for high expectations. When the next two words are "Sofia Coppola", most people's reaction would rightfully be "huh?".This "acclaimed director" is also the "acclaimed screenwriter" of this cinematic disaster. The screenplay is horrendous. The dialogue is strained and minimal. Characters are not developed. I found myself pitying Kidman and Farrell for having to report to work for such an inept director. Coppola evidently feels that suspense is built by endless shots of trees and the house in mist. Her overuse of this amateur device made me think that at any moment a commercial voice-over would declare "Virginia is For Lovers". And in true Coppola cliche fashion, so many scenes are so weakly illuminated. Straining to see whatever was happening, I actually screamed at my TV, "light the damn scene!".Other than skipping this movie, my advice to Coppola is to get out of the business. You're a disgrace to screenwriters and directors who would have done far better than you with this material. And stop believing your own hype.
philip_kipling Watched it because I liked the first one with Clint Eastwood, very disappointed with this one.
Osmosis Iron Reminds us that deep south was always messed up :D and ends just when it gets interesting.. sort of a "meh" movie!
