Negative Positive
Title: Big Disappointment
Review: I am a big fan of these producers' previous movies (Beckham, Bride and Prejudice). It's nice to see actors from the prior movies in new roles, but the film falls flat. The concept is silly but could have been saved by dynamic writing and direction. Unfortunately, the execution is bland, the writing weak (Poor Ash wandering around talking to spices, which works the first few times, but not beyond), and there is absolutely no chemistry between the main romantic leads. Dylan McDermott is miscast, his role is poorly conceived, and he needs a shave. The creators of the film seem to have said: what aout this? what about this? what about adding that to explain that? But they never came up with a good package. One is painfully aware that one is watching a bad film.
Is the review positive or negative?
