Negative Positive
Title: A Big Epic Mistake
Review: After directing such milestone films like "BLACK RAIN" & "THELMA & LOUISE" Scott went downhill with this badly acted and boring film about Christopher Columbis discovery of America. The fine french actor Gerard Depideueu was not in top form here and that's a total upset. Usually most historical films i've seen are done with good taste and do not lingere on and on with pointless melodrama, which is this film's biggest problem aside from the poor acting. I personally believe the title role shoud of gone to Mel Gibson or Liam Neeson instead, actors who can actually make a historical figure more compelling to see.
Is the review positive or negative?
