Title: Not that good.
Product review: I watched this movie expecting to be blown away based on all of the 5 stars and award nominations that it is getting and I was very disappointed. It's an average movie that, while good, is not the wonderful thing that I expected. Based on all of the raves of it's "fantasy" nature, I expected a lot more of that side of the story. Unfortunately, the fantasy was sadly lacking. I don't want to put in a spoiler, but I will say that I definitely hated the ending. I was ok with the rest of the movie and would have given it 3 stars except that the ending knocked it down to 2 stars.Also, the DVD quality is lacking - the English subtitles stopped appearing around scene 18 and it took a bit of button pressing to get them to show again. And the directors commentary cut out around scene 19 and I again had to do a bit of button pressing to get it back.And am I the only one that was annoyed with the amount of scene transitions that the director put in? It got to be very monotonous.
