Negative Positive
Title: Horribly Executed
Review: You would think that with a screenplay written (or co-written by Oliver Stone), directed by Michael Cimino, and had Mickey Rourke cast as the lead--that would be a great film, but this movie falls completely flat on its face. The writing is so clunky and overbearing and preachy, and the scenes were stitched together is such an amateurish way--I could barely finish watching this movie. It felt so incredibly dated. There were a couple of things that really stuck out (in a bad way) for me. 1) Mickey Rourke is way too young for the role--and having that fake grey hair dye job only made him look ridiculous. 2) The woman (Ariane) who played the reporter, was absolutely horrible. It's obvious that she's a model and not an actor. Oh--actually there is one more thing about this movie that really grated on me. The film score was awful--it stuck out like a sore thumb. There's nothing worse that having music that just doesn't fit the scene.
