I don't hate it as much as I did seeing it when it first came out, but I still find it to be bloated and Russell Crowe to be very undeserving of his Oscar.

It tries frankly to be too large, special and serious, and fails in each of these aspects. The scale is off set by the bad effects, the specialness ends up being just a cliched filled film, and the seriousness is seriously (no pun intended) off set by Phoenix's cartoonish (and even derivative) performance.Louis Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07933180959140340196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4953387045812787281.post-73360096766926618272011-03-21T21:40:58.861+01:002011-03-21T21:40:58.861+01:00I really wasn't a huge fan of this movie or Zi...I really wasn't a huge fan of this movie or Zimmer's score (I think it's too noisy and derivative of other works), but great review! You're totally right - it definitely feels like a souless epic, even if it is quite epic. HahaRoberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06228551523749418972noreply@blogger.com
