Nine

[neoachilles]

It was a great movie but it was boring...

Does that make sense?

The musical numbers were great but it lacked something in between them. It also seemed like they had used a huge cast of famous people to sell it because the movie wouldn't do well on it's own.

I really enjoyed it though and probably would have preferred watching it on DVD at home.

I know exactly what you mean. It wasn't bad--the musical numbers were great. I can't decide who's I liked the best: Cotillard's second number, Dame Judi's number, or Sophia Loren's little serenade. In any case, I didn't really perk up until Marion Cotillard came on the screen. She was fantastic, I think.

This is almost considered an upset. If anyone were to be nominated for this disaster it would have been Marion Cotillard.

Penelope had the harder role. She danced, she sang, she cried, she was naked and wearing whore make up. It's weird how I'm alone in this opinion.
