Title: Unbearably Tedious
Product review: I'm not going to go into much detail in reviewing this movie, so I'm going to make this brief. The true story of the death of Daniel Pearl is heartbreaking, but not necessarily a prime of example of terrific dramatic material for a movie. In fact, this movie is incredibly dull. It's got a lot of heart at the center and, as I said, the real story is heartbreaking...There's nothing really great about the film version though. Even Angelina Jolie (who's performance has been highly regarded in film reviews) isn't TERRIFIC here. She doesn't quite get under the skin of Mariane Pearl, Daniel's wife...Plus, she's sporting a fake French accent that fades in-and-out through the movie. Everyone behind the making of the film had good intentions, but the film is really incredibly uninteresting.GRADE: D
