Title: Ridley Scott's Worst
Review: This is Ridley Scott's absolute WORST. I realize that this film has a strong fan following, but I have to say it: this sloppy mess of a movie is just plain horrid. The storyline is so cheesy and insane. I realize that fantasy movies are supposed to be cheesy, but come on. The dialogue is excrutiating to listen to. I cannot recommend this movie to anyone. The acting, with the possible exception of Tim Curry, is atrocious.But it's not ALL bad. The effects are wonderful, and Ridley Scott's visual style makes this movie very easy on the eyes. But great special effects don't make a great movie. If you want to see a great fantasy movie, I would recommend Lord of the Rings instead of this unintelligible mess. Oh, by the way, I belivieve an earlier reviewer said this was a great movie to show to your children. DON'T, unless you want them to have nightmares until they're 30.
Is the review positive or negative?
