Negative Positive
Title: Rather Anticlimatic
Review: This film was so boring that at about 40 minutes into the movie I came here to read the other online reviews and my boyfriend began reading a rather thick book on Caribbean history. By the time Ben Affleck's character even met Gwyneth Paltrow's, the movie was almost too far gone to save. The beginning was that morose and uninteresting. The movement of time was not presented clearly. At first, it was not obvious that a year had passed before "Buddy" decided to seek out Gwyneth. Why he did not immediately tell her who he was is not clear. Other than the brief dog mauling "Buddy" receives, "Buddy's" relationship with Gwyneth is uneventful until she finds out who he is. Overall, the film is just too predictable from the moment "Buddy" hands his ticket over to a stranger in the airport. You know the plane will go down and the rest of the story rolls on in a nice tidy predictable fashion.
Is the review positive or negative?
